getting iostat of one partition fails.
eg.
<<<
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/work/m/tmp/sysstat-6.1.3$ ./iostat -p /dev/hda1
Linux 2.6.15-1-686 (sd033) 25/07/06
avg-cpu: %user %nice %system %iowait %steal %idle

(but running 'iostat -p /dev/hda' gives full output).
A patch to fix this issue is attached.
No, this is not the expected behavior for iostat.
The argument following option "-p" should be a device (like /dev/hda,
/dev/sda, etc.), and not a partition (/dev/hda1, ...).
"iostat -p /dev/hda" tells iostat to display the statistics for device
hda and all its partitions.
If you want to display the stats only for hda1, just enter "iostat
/dev/hda1" (and not "iostat -p /dev/hda1").
