Premise: I thought my 2 disks, 1 TB each, which I assembled into a software
RAID1 /dev/md0, was not correctly added to the RAID, in details: /dev/sdb5
wasn't added as linux-swap unlike /dev/sda5, so I was trying to use parted to
make sdb5 recognized as swap, to later add it to the RAID1.

PART-TYPE is one of: primary, logical, extended
FS-TYPE is one of: zfs, btrfs, nilfs2, ext4, ext3, ext2, fat32, fat16,
hfsx, hfs+, hfs, jfs, swsusp, linux-swap(v1), linux-swap(v0), ntfs, reiserfs,

affs7, affs6, affs5, affs4, affs3, affs2, affs1, affs0, linux-swap,
linux-swap(new), linux-swap(old)
START and END are disk locations, such as 4GB or 10%. Negative values
count from the end of the disk. For example, -1s specifies exactly the last
sector.
'mkpart' makes a partition without creating a new file system on the
partition. FS-TYPE may be specified to set an appropriate partition ID.
