Is there any good alternative to parted, that I can use in scripts? Parted main problem is that it requires user confirmation one each action.
You must log in or register to comment.
Not something I’ve done before, but have you tried
fdisk
?fdisk
is completely interactive, not suitable for scripting.sfdisk
is a “scriptable fdisk”.Even the manpage Telorand linked mentions it by name for non-interactive use.
Also, make sure you use the right program depending on thr partition table :
sgdisk
is the right choice for GPT disks,sfdisk
is for MBR.
parted -s
orparted --script
– never prompt the user
