Re: [PATCH] Allow partition size to be define relative to RAM size

my POV the patch looks really good; I'd prefer if you could add it to the experimental branch yourself, but if you don't like to I'll take care of that. Will do, access permitting :) JB. -- Julien BLACHE jbla...@debian.org | Debian, because code matters more Debian GNU/Linux Developer

Re: [PATCH] Make preserve work for RAID in FAI 3.4.x

feedback to gauge interest. I'll have to implement that anyway, but I can do it in setup-storage or standalone; I think it's a good fit for setup-storage, though. JB. -- Julien BLACHE - Debian GNU/Linux Developer - jbla...@debian.org Public key available on http://www.jblache.org - KeyID: F5D6

Another issue with RAID preserve in 3.4.x

Hi, Just a heads up (mainly for Mika wrt 3.4.3) about another issue with RAID preserve in 3.4.x on Squeeze. The output of mdadm changed again, so parsing that fails early on and that breaks setup-storage. I'll have a patch tomorrow. JB. -- Julien BLACHE - Debian GNU/Linux Developer - jbla
