Hi Jan, partitions without a partition table? I may have missed a detail, but how should this work (i.e. how would the OS know about partitioning without reading a MBR or GPT)? If you want to use a full disk "as is", without partitioning, e.g. in a mdraid, that would be something like this: disk_config sda raw-disk - 0 - - disk_config sdb raw-disk - 0 - - disk_config md0 ... Is this what you're looking for? Cheers, S
