Back in January there was a mail thread on this subject (
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2005-01/msg00659.html
), however I see that blkfront still does not include ioctl support for
disk geometry. So, any application that uses "sfdisk -g" to get the
geometry of a partition, or disk, will fail when run in DomU.
Is this a deliberate omission? Nick Logan _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel |
