Package: powerpc-ibm-utils
Version: 1.0.2-1
Severity: normal
ofpathname cannot handle block devices representing partitions:
% /usr/sbin/ofpathname /dev/hda
/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
% /usr/sbin/ofpath /dev/hda
/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:
% /usr/sbin/ofpathname /dev/hda3
/usr/sbin/ofpathname: line 237: cd: /sys/block/hda3: No such file or directory
ofpathname: Could not find sysfs information for logical
device "/dev/hda3".
hardknott% /usr/sbin/ofpath /dev/hda3
/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:3
Since ofpath (provided by yaboot) can work with such devices, it would
be useful if ofpathname could also. The necessary information /is/
in sysfs; ofpathname just needs teaching to look for it.
