[arm-allstar] partitions

I did something incredibly stupid, and accidentally deleted the primary 
partition on a stock HamVoIP image without first noting the start and 
end sectors. This is on a remote Pi, so I can't just blow it away. The 
system works fine for now, because it hasn't been rebooted.

This version of parted is different than what I'm used to from Debian.

I need to create a new partition starting at sector 206848 and ending at 
the end of the disk, which is 62333952. Then I can clean/resize the

file system. I tried

parted

mkpart primary 206847 62333952

Error: The location 206848 is outside of the device /dev/mmcblk0.
(parted)

So obviously, this isn't the format it expects.

Thanks for any assistance.

I know resizing the partition isn't necessarily a great idea. I should 
just have created a second one, as I want to use a bit more of the space 
on this 32GB SD card since it isn't local to me.
