Subject: [RFC] block: Remove annoying "unknown partition table" message
Date: Sun, 18 Jan 2015 17:32:53 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <54BBD225.3080200@plexistor.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20150118151059.GA17263@infradead.org>
From: Boaz Harrosh <boaz@plexistor.com>
As Christoph put it best:
Can we just get rid of the warnings? It's fairly annoying as devices
without partitions are perfectly fine and very useful.
Me too I see this message every VM boot for ages on all my
devices. Would love to just remove it. For me a partition-table
is only needed for a booting BIOS, grub, and stuff.
(NOT Yet Tested)
