Message #5 received at submit <at> debbugs.gnu.org (full text, mbox):
I have a FAT32 logical partition on an MBR hard drive. The partition ID
is 0xb and the partition is successfully shared between Windows7,
Windows Vista, and various Linux distros.
In 'parted-3.1' if I 'print' the drive (/dev/sdc), the output does not
show the type of the partition. If I try to use GParted to copy the
partition to a backup drive, the copy always fails. Asking about this on
the GParted forum I have received the information that the copy fails
because 'parted' does not recognize the partition type, even though
'gparted' shows it as a FAT32 partition.
How can I determine why 'parted' does not recognize the partition type ?
I have tried 'parted' from the GParted live, which uses a 2.3 patched
version of 'parted' from Debian sid and I have tried 'parted' from
Fedora 20, which uses the latest 3.1 version of 'parted'. The result is
the same: 'parted' does no recognize the partition type of my FAT32
partition.

parted's filesystem detection should not be depended on, it is for
cosmetic purposes only. I'm not sure what gparted is doing, but it
shouldn't be failing because of libparted's fs display.
Also, how was the fs created? If I use mkfs.vfat on a logical partition
it shows up as fat32 in my tests.

yes. gparted should be relying on libblkid, if it isn't already.

See the discussion about this on GParted forum at
http://gparted-forum.surf4.info/viewtopic.php?id=16878. The partiton was
/dev/sdb14 with GParted live. The final error message, from 'libparted' is:
"Could not detect file system."

Created orginally from Windows, not Linux.

Not for resizing the filesystem, which is where the failure happened ;)

Historically the system ID field of a fat boot sector contains a
string identifying the OS that formatted it. It appears that some
recent versions of Windows have stopped bothering with this. Stop
requiring this string to recognize fat as valid.

Thanks !
Hopefully GParted Live ( Debian sid ) will pick this up and some further
release of it will incorporate this fix.

I recently submitted several patches to the various partman packages
so hopefully Debian can *finally* upgrade to parted 3+ soon, and I'm
trying to get a parted 3.2 release out in the coming week or two and
into Debian soon, which should hopefully wind up in gparted livecd
0.19 and Ubuntu 14.10.

Nice. Appreciated !
I also questioned, from an end-user's perspective, on the GParted forum
why the version of 'parted' used in GParted Live was 2.3 + Debian
patches and not the latest 3.1.

I've taken the liberty of pushing this patch without waiting for
review, given how trivial it is.
