Add parted and gptfdisk to the ISOs 03 April 2019, 06:34:00 These two packages are incredibly useful for partitoning, and not having them by default on the ISOs is a real shame.

Re: Add parted and gptfdisk to the ISOs Reply #2 – 04 April 2019, 18:29:06 I prefer using the runit base ISO. Could the base ISOs also be updated?

Re: Add parted and gptfdisk to the ISOs Reply #4 – 04 April 2019, 22:25:50 I've never used cfdisk before, but I know there are people who use those other two tools. Do you consider cfdisk the be-all-end-all partitioning tool?
Re: Add parted and gptfdisk to the ISOs Reply #5 – 04 April 2019, 22:34:03 cfdisk is pretty a mature piece of software, iirc 26 years development by now.Since it is part of util-linux, I'd consider it a default partitioning tool, but it is also a matter of taste.
