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.

    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.
