OK, I haven't heard any negative comments on the /dev/mapper patch and since it fixes the problem I see reported here:

        http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=317262

I'm including it in rc2 for testing.  You can download 1.8.0rc2 from here:

        ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/parted

This rc includes:

        - UI improvements (display more disk info)
        - /dev/mapper read/write support via libdevmapper
        - Fix compile problems on Slackware
        - Fix geometry read problem seen on 64-bit Macs
        - Handle disk_types==NULL in ped_register_disk_type()
        - Handle type not in list in ped_unregister_disk_type()

Please test and report any bugs.  We're getting closer to 1.8.0 final!
