Except that won't work if you don't have kpartx installed, and also users tend to run dmraid directly and don't use -p to change its behavior. The same goes with kpartx. Everyone needs to get on the same page here and do away with -p switches to deviate from the standard behavior, or you run into possibly data corrupting problems. > Which was the reason why I chose the '-part' naming scheme; this way > it's pretty obvious that a new naming scheme is used.

Being VERY non compliant does not void objections that you aren't compliant. -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
