Hi, Attached to bug 1371634 i added a script that shows a general issue with kpartx being called on files with spaces in them. Does that seem like a bug that should also be fixed?
it shows itself with: $ img="/tmp/my.img"; spacename="/dev/my space name"; $ truncate --size=1G "$img" $ echo "2048," | sfdisk --force "$img" --unit S $ lodev=$(sudo losetup --find --show "$img") $ echo $lodev /dev/loop0 $ sudo ln -sf "$lodev" "$spacename" $ ls -l $lodev "$spacename" brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 0 Jun 4 09:25 /dev/loop0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Jun 4 09:25 /dev/my space name -> /dev/loop0 $ sudo kpartx -a -v "$spacename" device-mapper: reload ioctl on my\x20space\x20name1 failed: Invalid argument create/reload failed on my space name1 add map my space name1 (0:0): 0 2095104 linear /dev/my space name 2048 ## then clean up $ sudo losetup -d "$lodev" $ sudo rm "$spacename" "$img" -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to multipath-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1432062 Title: multipath-tools-boot: support booting without user_friendly_names on devices with spaces in identifiers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/multipath-tools/+bug/1432062/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
