Doesn't the existant partition type 0xFD provide e2fs a useful clue, or is maybe that what blinds it to what is actually present?
No. The only place where 0xfd partition type is (was) used is kernel-level Linux MD autodetection.
"Was", as in kernel no long autodetects md devices?
Old devices continue to be recognized, but with all the problems that can arise, contemoprary systems no longer recommend nor use kernel-level autodetection.
In addition autodetection works with 0.90 metadata only, while all new installations default to 1.2. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
