Unless there's something hiding off in a corner of the gate, it LGTM.


First of all, sorry for replying late (I had some issues with illumos-dev ML). We have prepared for this change (I've prepared components for ntfsprogs and parted). I'd like to mention that removing parted is a bit unpleasant for us taking in consideration that current GNU parted lacks Solaris/illumos support. So, we stay with just the same old bits which currently are provided in illumos-gate. However, it's not critical, as GParted is shipped only for user convenience on slim CD and luckily is not used by the installer.
Gparted IS critical for new users wanting to install new installations from Live CD on existing disk to dual-boot.
We can not loose parted/gparted "just because".

if it is part of illumos, maybe it could be moved to Openindiana then to maintain but i am asking, why would it be removed anyway?

Will renewed ntfs-3g then be available in /sfe then? Since, without that, users would loose ntfs in OI,
and that is unacceptable.
