Hi all,

After many hours spend last night trying to get my root filesystem
autorun when my kernel loads I discovered that sunos.c in fs/partitions
has no support for adding partitions to the list of eligible RAID
members. Before I go and fix the Solaris partition code (it can't work
out what type a partition is at the moment) and add in the
md_autodetect_dev() business, has anyone else already fixed this?

I have a patch at the moment, but it is evil (and tries to add *every*
partition to the RAID list) so I would prefer to do it properly before
releasing it on the world :)

Cheers,

Beezly
