Hi Otavio, > Hello Guido, > > Are you planning to work at partman-md support for it or partman-multipath? I think a separate partman-multipath makes more sense (note that this isn't the (deprecated) md-multipath but the device mapper's multipath target). partman-multipath will have to run the multipath binary to discover and group the available paths. The user may then select the WWIDs of the devices he wants to partition and should be able to set a user friendly name (which will be stored in multipath.conf). After partitioning we'd have to run kpartx to create the necessary device mappings for the partitions. Are there any must reads besides the other partman-* modules in order to get started quickly?
I've attached a patch for kernel-wedge. Next step will be to file bug reports for the linux-kernel-di-*-2.6 packages so the file gets used in their modules/ and package-lists? Cheers, -- Guido
