Package: base Severity: normal I have connected two USB disk which are exactly indentical. The disks are Iomega 320Go and their ID is "ST332082_0AS_5F542FFFFFFF"
The 1st have 4 partitions and the 2nd only one. "cat /dev/disk/by-id" only show a disk with 4 partitions : usb-ST332082_0AS_5F542FFFFFFF-0:0 usb-ST332082_0AS_5F542FFFFFFF-0:0-part1 usb-ST332082_0AS_5F542FFFFFFF-0:0-part2 usb-ST332082_0AS_5F542FFFFFFF-0:0-part3 usb-ST332082_0AS_5F542FFFFFFF-0:0-part4 But there is cross references: If I make "dd if=/dev/disk/by-id/usb-ST332082_0AS_5F542FFFFFFF-0\:0 of=ggg count=1" I can see with "hd ggg" that this is the 2nd disk partition table and not the 1st. idem if I test with "usb-ST332082_0AS_5F542FFFFFFF-0:0-part1", but with 2,3 and 4 this is really the parts of the 1st disk. So I suppose that during detection of the 1st disk, id are created correctly and when the 2nd is detected id are re-writen with the same name. system Infos: wheezy/sid on Marvell sheevaplug Linux SheevaDaily 3.0.0-1-kirkwood #1 Sun Aug 28 14:30:35 UTC 2011 armv5tel GNU/Linux -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers lucid-updates APT policy: (500, 'lucid-updates'), (500, 'lucid-security'), (500, 'lucid-backports'), (500, 'lucid') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-35-generic-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
