Disklabel: label magic number or checksum is wrong!

Hello,

Here a strange output coming from Disklabel.
On openbsd and fedora it works, but not on DF ??!!

I've even clean totally the disk, but the results are the same:
In fedora:
- dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc
- fdisk to create 1 primary partition
- mkdosfs -F32 /dev/sdc1

Does this is linked to the linux's fdisk ?

I think the USB stick is not corrupt because it works wih other OS. But
maybe DF is more rigorous ?

Any ideas ?

Thanks
