Bitchassez stop wasting your time with Ubuntu. This won't be fixed.

Title:
  Sfdisk importation failed

Status in “util-linux” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: util-linux

  Hello,

  I tried to copy partition table from /dev/sda to /dev/sdd with this :
  sfdisk -d /dev/sda | sfdisk /dev/sdd and it don't work
  So I do this :
  sfdisk -d /dev/sda > out.sav
  sfdisk /dev/sdd < out.sav
  and it fail with this message :
  Vérification qu'aucun autre n'utilise le disque en ce moment ...
  OK

  Disque /dev/sdd: 38913 cylindres, 255 têtes, 63 secteurs/piste
  Vieille situation:
  Unités= cylindres de 8225280 octets, blocs de 1024 octets, décompte à partir de 0

  AVERTISSEMENT: début de partition corrompu (auparavant 434108431)

  sfdisk: entrée erronée

  
  in sfdisk -d /dev/sda I had this :
  # table de partitions de /dev/sda
  unit: sectors

  /dev/sda1 : start=       63, size= 16771797, Id= b
  /dev/sda2 : start=        0, size=        0, Id= 0
  /dev/sda3 : start= 16771860, size=569327535, Id= 5
  /dev/sda4 : start=        0, size=        0, Id= 0
  /dev/sda5 : start=289394910, size=144713520, Id=83
  /dev/sda6 : start=434108493, size=151990902, Id=83
  /dev/sda7 : start= 16771986, size=272622924, Id=83

  To make this working I modified out.sav and change /dev/sda7 :
  # table de partitions de /dev/sda
  unit: sectors

  /dev/sda1 : start=       63, size= 16771797, Id= b
  /dev/sda2 : start=        0, size=        0, Id= 0
  /dev/sda3 : start= 16771860, size=569327535, Id= 5
  /dev/sda4 : start=        0, size=        0, Id= 0
  /dev/sda5 : start= 16771986, size=272622924, Id=83
  /dev/sda6 : start=289394910, size=144713520, Id=83
  /dev/sda7 : start=434108493, size=151990902, Id=83
