Bug #465: Issues with the development version

liveusb-write fails just after writing the image

Description

On Debian Squeeze liveusb-write writes the USB image file onto disk but then exits without making the persistence file and without any error message. Investigations showed that there are two issues:

  1. the commands fdisk and sfdisk do not return the same disk partition geometry
  2. the package python-unac is segfaulting without notice

Currently the sfdisk issue has a workaround (use information from it instead of fdisk!) while the second one has none. Changing the data persistence partition label has then just been commented out since this is the only piece of code calling python-unac.
