Howdy,
I believe that this is caused by a bug in libfdisk. It does not
add hdg to the fdisk_disks list because the device_blocks[] array
does not contain the proper information for the hdg, hdh, hdi, or
hdj drives. The device number for hdg is 34 << 8, by using the
information in device_blocks

Hi,
I have read that Modconf doesn't support 2.4.(0,1) kernels. As far as I
experienced, it doesn't work with the 2.4.2 neither.
I wanted to know if there was a solution, cause I didn't find any, since I

Please let me know if there is a
