Hello, I have a disk image file which is using GPT and embeds 2 partitions. I'm setting up a loop device with: $ losetup -P -f disk.img and expect the partition devices (loop0p[12] for example) to be automatically created. During the loop setup, udev reposrts: $ udevadm monitor KERNEL[88697.611649] change /devices/virtual/block/loop0 (block) UDEV [88697.612488] change /devices/virtual/block/loop0 (block) KERNEL[88698.738369] change /devices/virtual/block/loop0 (block) UDEV [88698.744727] change /devices/virtual/block/loop0 (block) The loop kernel module was loaded with max_part=16 The weird thing is that if I'm setting up the loop device using a blank image file and create the partitions (using gdisk) on this loop dev, it works. I'm not sure if this is an issue to util-linux though and if it's not, sorry for the noise. Thanks. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe util-linux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
