That sounds odd. If I'd start to rely on such a feature
I considered a simpler approach without sfdisk, however /proc/partitions
may not update after writing the image directly to the disk with dd, so
an approach that actually read the partition table from the device was
used. Also, /proc/partitions just lists block count, and not partition
begin/e
Rob, I'll not judge the merit of keeping the previous position table, but I
guess dd might be enough for saving/restore partitions (I guess only msdos
is used). dd and /proc/partitions might replace sfdisk.

This patch will save the partition table before an upgrade.
If the installed image has not changed the partition structure
the saved table will be restored, ensuring any user created
partitions will be present after the upgrade.
An option is added to sysupgrade to disable this feature.
