So---entirely aside from the _other_ subthread about types _inside_ LUKS---do you still intend to provide this as a reason for not adding GPT/MBR LUKS types to fdisk, even in light of the destructive interaction I mentioned in my first post? I'm worried that my having said anything else while replying to Dale may have been a mistake and given the impression that "no types inside LUKS" answers my original concern, which it doesn't. As I mentioned, GPT and MBR have significant interop characteristics with other tools, so I'm not convinced by the "Linux only uses blkid" there. If that's what you're truly going with after having seen the practical results, I won't argue further, but I'd like to know. ---> Drake Wilson -- 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
