Olaf: You asked for a way to create one dm device per partition in http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/8/10/42 . See the kpartx description below for a solution.

Two possible solutions: - Use kpartx (and device mapper) for partitions sdX16 and greater (ugly, but works. Booting from such partitions however requires manual mapping in GRUB and LILO) - Change minor number allocation for SCSI disks in the kernel (unlikely to be accepted without great opposition) I'll test using kpartx and report back.
