Agreed the SCSI limit is idiotic, but would anyone but power users have more than 15 partitions and _not_ also use a partition mover like lvm or evms, which don't have this limitation??
Volker
so resorting to lvm should be the proposed solution, not repartitionning with less than 15 partitions :-)
Yes, we can change the wording ;-). The problem is that all solutions to support more than 15 partitions in an automatic way might cause problems ;-(
What is the benefit to has more than 15 partitions? Regards --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
