why can't you just put the (known) offsets in your plan9.ini like i am doing for aoe? it's distasteful, but it does get the job done. if you don't like that you could put fdisk and prep in your kernel image, write a new boot method, localpart, that partitions before it calls local. you could import the code for this from 9load. - erik
