Hello,

With the change from traditional /dev/hd* type device nodes to /dev/sd* type nodes, I see that the highest partition number that can be used is 15. Will this change so that higher numbers will be available? I do have a system that has a drive with almost 30 small partitions used in a research effort and the number of partitions has not been an issue thru fc6.

Use LVM.
Trust me.
You won't be sorry.


Use lvm is not the answer, if this was possible before the system should upgrade to FC-7 flawlessly, if /dev/hdx accomodated more then 15 partitions, then so should the new /dev/sdx when it becomes the new device for this disk.

Hans
