Hmmm, this command is installed on my old ubuntu 10.04 netbook, running
"dpkg-query -S $(which partprobe)" says it's part of the gnu parted
package. Busybox does not have this command.

We already call BLKRRPART in "fdisk" and "eject". I'd be tempted to add
it to mdev instead of making it a standalone command, but the standalone
command already exists...

Could you give me an example use case? (You resize the partitions
without calling fdisk which would already call this ioctl...?)

Thanks,

Rob
