Re: wheezy partition question



Not sure, 

Logical partitions may start at offset 63, what is peculiar that the
partitioner, created offset 2 and a free space of 61 sectors, which
really is not free, 61+2 equals 63 that would be the right offset

On the same partition on my system used to be Lenny, and that was with
offset 63 and no free space.

My disk is repartitioned with no free space for many years. It just the
partiotioner that created free space of 61, that should really belong to
the offset.
