182	First partition not offset 63 sectors (1 track) in parted 1.8.1 (possible alignment problem)	mjq		parted 1.8.1 is apparently not laying partitions offset 63 sectors (1 'track') for the first partition defined as starting at 0mb-\r\n\r\n'''mkpart primary 0 1000'''\r\n\r\nIts offset only 512K (the MBR). I dont see where I'd have room for my GRUB stage 1.5 which normally sits right after the MBR on 15 sectors. I worked around by using an older version of parted (1.6.9). I dl'd 1.8.8 & will try after some sleep...too tired right now. Thanks	defect	new	major	2.0.0 "Edge"	parted	1.8.8		alignment MBR
