..what? I do not understand. In all the tests I just did, for each computer (I did not test the T420), I did at least one test where the ordinary Sata drive was not there, so the only "memory" that could be seen was either the mSata, the boot medium, or ram.
Ok, this is very strange.. I am trying again on the T430, which happens to have both the mSata and it's ordinary Sata, (coincidence), both register, but it looks like I now have -two- /data options. /dev/sdE0/data and /dev/sdE2/data. As for your suggestion, I have tried accepting the default, which is [], or nothing, and.. same thing. Infinite loop. ..repeating the test, with the Sata out, I get the same thing, (infinite loop), except that there is now only one /dev/sdE1/data, with a 1, not 2 or 0.
