In the meantime, it would be good if people could start testing it. The current plan, such as there is one, is to wait for Marcelo to release 2.4.19 with the MTD fixes that are already in his tree, then send the remainder of the new code which I didn't want to go into such a late prerelease. Then I'll update the code to build in 2.5 and use all the stuff in compatmac.h for the 2.4 build, and send that to Linus. At that point, I'll be looking to merge Jörn's partition code - so if it doesn't work for you, make sure you've squealed by that point. -- dwmw2
