Subject: [PATCH] fdisk: to recognize Intel Rapid Start hibernation partition
Date: Wed, 7 Oct 2015 11:41:23 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <201510071141.23757.joerg.jen.der.ek@gmx.net> (raw)
Dear util-linux maintainer,
i use Intel Rapid Start Technology on my PC. According to their
User Guide "Rapid_Start_Technology_User_Guide_v1.4.pdf"
i create a partition with id=84 for hibernation by this Technology.
Unfortunately the software fdisk (util-linux-2.27) classifies that partition
as "OS/2 hidden C:". That is not wrong, but
on website https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_type is written, that id 0x84
beside using for hiding drive C: this type is a also used as hibernation partition
for Microsoft APM and also for Intel Rapid Start
So i patched 2 header files so that fdisk recognize this partition type variation

Sorry that i do this way, but i have no knowledge about git toys.
Hope you can apply my patches in a future version of the fdisk program.
thanks,
Jörg Jenderek
