Today on anti-user software that sucks: modern fdisk won't let you create partitions below sector 2048. Adding -c dos lets you go down to 63, but still wouldn't let me recreate a thumb drive's original partition at sector 32.

Has fdisk, in either its Linux or BSD _ever_ been user friendly?
DOS fdisk is better (yes I said it), but GParted is the only software that seems to get it really right, and that's a GUI T_T.

GParted is a frontend to gnu.org/software/parte which has always been what I've used rather than dealing with fdisk.
FWIW, I don't think Parted's UI is good either :P. Though maybe I should try it again...
