Subject: sfdisk -g support in DomU
Date: Wed, 16 Nov 2005 10:08:51 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <437B0533.6000407@symantec.com> (raw)

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?
