fdisk: don't care about partition type
fdisk allows to overwrite existing partition if the partition has
partition type set to zero (very unusual, but possible).
This is incorrect because such partition is pretty valid (and Linux
kernel does not care about the type at all). For example:
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 2048 22527 10240 83 Linux
/dev/sdb2 22528 227327 102400 0 Empty
^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^
Command (m for help): n
Partition type:
p primary (1 primary, 0 extended, 3 free)
e extended
Select (default p):
Using default response p
Partition number (3,4, default 3):
First sector (22528-1228799, default 22528):
^^^^^^^
.. if user follows the default then the result are overlapping
partitions:
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 2048 22527 10240 83 Linux
/dev/sdb2 22528 227327 102400 0 Empty
/dev/sdb3 22528 1228799 603136 83 Linux
^^^^^
... and if you call "mkfs /dev/sdb3" then you lost data on sdb2. Sad
thing.
