>Description:
When specifying a non-whole number in sysinstall (say 10.5G), sysinstall incorrectly parses the value and returns a negative geometry in fdisk. This will eventually get caught as an error when the commit is performed, but that's not ideal because at that point sysinstall will fail horribly with a unintuitive error message.
>How-To-Repeat:
Provide a non-integer decimal number when specifying a partitioning scheme or label scheme.
>Fix:
