Parted Magic 4.10

,----[ Quote ]
| Parted Magic 4.10 updates to grep-2.6.3, 
| busybox-1.16.1, simpleburn-1.5.0, sshfs-
| fuse-2.2, linux-2.6.32.11. There are a few 
| new programs as well. They are 
| encfs_1.5.2, gencfs-1.0.0, gsshfs-1.0.0, 
| rlog-1.4, unetbootin-429, and 
| emelfm2-0.6.0. Parted was patched with 
| updates from Ubuntu to reverse a decision 
| to use a BLKRRPART instead of the BLKPG 
| ioctls that worked. GPicView doesn't 
| segfault anymore. FAT32 file systems now 
| mount as UTF8 by default. Many 
| enhancements were made to the handing of 
| SCSI device at boot. Creating bookmarks 
| with Chromium no longer crashes the 
| program.
