Severity: minor
Hi,
I got this error message recently when using the Debian installer (sarge
release).
************************************************************************
Partition Disk
The kernel was unable to re-read the partition table on /dev/mapper/vg-lv1
(invalid argument), This means Linux won't know anything nothing about the
modifications you made until you reboot. YOu should reboot your computer
before doing anything with /dev/mapper/vg-lv1.
************************************************************************
I googled for the error message, and it looks like this message may be
coming from parted, but I'm not sure. Since I saw the message in the
installer, I'm filing the bug here.
This error dates back to at least 2003 based on googling, and I can't see
any record of it having been fixed.
Anyway, the point is that "Linux won't know anything nothing" is not correct
English, so it should be changed.
Faheem.

You are of course correct.
However, a check shows that this mistake has already been fixed in the
version of parted currently in unstable.
Therefor closing the bug.
Thanks for reporting.
Cheers,
FJP
