Forgotten one, sorry about that.
Coly, could you take a look if this is something we want to fix/improve?
The --zero-superblock option does not zero-erase all superblock area, it just exactly zero fills some attributions (e.g. array name, homehost name, uuid, data offset from start, etc.) from the super block (it depends on the super block version and format). Maybe wipefs(8) may help in this case? Normally it works with "wipefs -fa <dev>" for me. Coly Li -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
