Hello,
I have a use case where a complete OS installation spans multiple block devices. (e.g. /dev/sda, /dev/sdb, etc..) As such, I'm looking to create partitions across multiple devices rather than just a single block device that we booted from.
Right now it looks like I need to spawn multiple instances of systemd-repart with --image /dev/sdX --root /special-dir-for-sdX-which-contains-etc-repartd. However this feels a bit unnatural and it might be that is not intended for this use case. Something like --directory to specify config directory (akin to journalctl which takes both --root and --directory) could help reduce boilerplate file hierarchy. Or maybe something more declarative in the config files such as BlockDevice=/dev/sdX so the configs only apply to specific devices.
I would love to hear opinions and suggestions on this.
