Hello Mingo, Hmmm, I had to edit 'drivers/block/genhd.c' after
the patching to add the 'fifth' variable to the 'add_partition'
calls .
I also had to edit 'mkpv.c' in the '1214' raid-tools src's to
get them to compile on my system,
I replaced the
#include <sys/mount.h>
With
#include <linux/fs.h>
I'm attaching patches agains't these files only .
I'm also not very sure if these changes are the
best but they got things to compile . I'm now
going for the acid test , -reboot- . Ttys
Also below is my build / system configuration .
