severity 286219 grave
thanks
Hi!
The same problem seems to occur for lvm devices:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ls -la /dev/mapper/vg1-wine
brw------- 1 root root 254, 6 2005-03-03 23:58 /dev/mapper/vg1-wine
[EMAIL PROTECTED]> sudo mkfs.vfat -F32 /dev/mapper/vg1-wine
mkfs.vfat 2.10 (22 Sep 2003)
mkfs.vfat: unable to get drive geometry for '/dev/mapper/vg1-wine'
[EMAIL PROTECTED]> sudo strace mkfs.vfat -F32 /dev/mapper/vg1-wine
[...]
open("/dev/mapper/vg1-wine", O_RDWR) = 3
fstat64(3, {st_mode=S_IFBLK|0600, st_rdev=makedev(254, 6), ...}) = 0
ioctl(3, 0x301, 0xbffff6d0) = -1 ENOTTY (Inappropriate ioctl for
device)
write(2, "mkfs.vfat: unable to get drive g"..., 67mkfs.vfat: unable to get
drive geometry for '/dev/mapper/vg1-wine') = 67
I'm upgrading the severity of this bug, as this should be fixed for
sarge.
