May I belatedly say that this is sort-of a kernel issue, since /proc/partitions reflects invalid data? Perhaps a boot option like nopart=sda,sdb or similar would be in order?

Is this an argument to be passed to the kernel at boot time? It didn't
work for me.


My suggestion was to Neil or other kernel maintainers. If they agree that this is worth fixing, the option could be added in the kernel. It isn't there now, I was soliciting responses on whether this was desirable.

Unfortunately I see no way to avoid data in the partition table location, which looks like a partition table, from being used.
