Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
In KNOPPIX 9.1 I use parted version 3.4
I am trying to repair the USB stick
> SanDisk Cruzer Glide
> SDCZ60-256G-B35
which was destoyed by partclone.
Gparted shows red warnigs, that no filesystem can be found.
With Gparted I have often deleted the partition(s) and created various new
patitions with partition tables msdos and gpt.
Yet not tried ntfs until yet.
Until yet all was of no help.
Now I am going on to make partitioning to ntfs and exfat.
For this I am now using the tool parted.
In the moment the non-working on the USB stick has the partition table msdos.
For the parted command "mkpart" the documentation "info parted" says:
PART-TYPE is one of "primary", "extended" or "logical", and may be
specified only with "msdos" or "dvh" partition tables.
Now the problem is:
I intend to mkpart "ntfs",
but nevertheless parted insists to type "primary".
Without giving "primary" I cannot progress, and with giving "primary" an
error message is produced.
This is true for interactive operation as well as for non-interactive.
There is no way to use parted.
You want to receive with each bug report the output of the parted command
parted /dev/sdp unit s print free
(I have tried sdp and sdp1)
The output I cite here:
+++++
Model: SanDisk Cruzer Glide (scsi)
Disk /dev/sdp: 487391232s
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/513B
Partition Table: msdos
Disk Flags: (none)
Number Start End Size Type FileSystem Flags
2s 2047s 2046s (none) FreeSpace (none)
1 2048s 487391231s 487389184s primary (none) (none)

Dear Anton,
please, read
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_Boot_Record#Prim%C3%A4re_und_erweiterte_Partitionstabelle
Brief: An MBR partition table can hold 4 primary partition entries - or in place of one of them an extended partition.
The Filesystem type is an indicator in this table. Additionally the partition needs to be formatted, i.e. the file system structure needs to be written to the partition.
Try testdisk for rescue - it's able to recover lost partitons including file system - while photorec would search for data and try to copy files found to a different media.
Regards,
P.C.User

I am not sure what you mean by repair, but parted likely isn't the tool
you want for that.
parted *can* re-partition the device, but you will lose your data when
you re-format it.
As the other response said, you need to use 'primary' on msdos
labeled devices. Setting the filesystem type to ntfs will set the
partition type for an NTFS filesystem, but will not actually format it.
You need to use mkfs.ntfs to do that.
Good Luck,
Brian

To recover partitioning, perhaps a tool like Photorec could help...
