I think this is interesting. I was looking for an ESP on bootable RAID solution a few months ago and immediately ruled this solution out because deprecation and assumption that anaconda would use the new format. It's interesting that this is the solution anaconda went with. I can't remember what else I discovered in reading the manual last. Do you know if there are any other discovery/identification limitations to the old superblocks? _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/message/55M6ZRWIFQDXSLFO4BBVZUGEFHES3PAD/
