Re: [PATCH 2/2] Align logical partitions' start sector up one logical block for metadata.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

Looks good, but what about non growable partitions, if I
understand the code correct growPartitions wont touch
those, but we still need to do this. Anyways fixing that
would be another patch, so ack for this one.

(I haven't looked too closely, so if this is taken care of,
 I'll believe you)

Regards,

Hans
