Ah, right. We are now moving towards Gparted (which is missing in the
live cd), and the shortcut in the desktop was forgot to be removed.
Thanks for the report.

Could you please try to use 'Compile Gparted', or 'InstallPackage
Gparted' and see if that program works for you?

Hmm, ok. So it might be better to prepare an official Scripts release

Hmm, quite interesting. Does it work if you 'export NO_UNIONFS=yes'?
