We will set (to a real value or NULL) str_disk_guid in set_gpt_info(). That function will NOT do anything if str_part is NULL. In our case, if str_part would be NULL we'll have errored out of do_rename_gpt_parts() before that call, so we're safe. If str_part can't be duplicated because we ran out of memory then yes, we can't be sure str_disk_guid will have been set. I'll send v2 shortly. Thanks! -- Tom
