I recently wondered if there should be a new partition type. Partitioning tools look for (and sometimes find!) filesystems on 0x83 partitions so 0x83 is out (anyone splitting a mirror should be happy changing the type back) I'd rather that rescue disk didn't think 'oh, I'll use that swap partition', so 0x82 is out. I don't want md trying to autodetect and complaining so, as you say, 0xfd is out. I think it would be nice to mark them as 0xFC David -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
