[PATCH 4/4] partx: don't treat empty partition table as error

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If a partition table was detected, but it had no partitions
in it, a poorly worded error message was printed and further
action halted.  For partx -a, this gave an unnecessary error
and for partx -u, prevented update from removing all partitions.
