I have no idea of further implications. Yves, thanks this seems to have fixed this, i still agree with Andreas that lvm_check_partitioned_dev should be checked. i wuld use LVM_DEVICE_TYPE_MD instead of 2 in the patch as for partitioned md device i believe the major is different from 9, but i would not suggest using them with lvm anyway. patch with my mod follows for the lazy, pleas check it in cvs for the time being. --- tools/lib/lvm_check_partitioned_dev.c.bluca Thu Aug 23 07:51:53 2001 +++ tools/lib/lvm_check_partitioned_dev.c Fri Oct 5 21:18:51 2001 @@ -55,6 +55,8 @@ switch (lvm_get_device_type(st_rdev)) { case LVM_DEVICE_TYPE_INVALID: break; + case LVM_DEVICE_TYPE_MD: + break; default: ret = TRUE; } -- Luca Berra -- bluca@comedia.it Communication Media & Services S.r.l. /"\ \ / ASCII RIBBON CAMPAIGN X AGAINST HTML MAIL / \
