--=-+jfO8xL5eSwZz2gsiQu1 Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I am working to sync our HAL backend up with the latest HAL spec. To that end, I have added support for displaying more volume.partition properties. This patch will only affect HAL objects that have the volume.is_partition property set to TRUE. The only way you'd notice any difference is using lshal. The old output looked something like: volume.partition.number =3D 3 (0x3) (int) volume.msdos_part_table_type =3D 165 (0xa5) (int) The new style looks like this: volume.partition.start =3D 18268346880 (0x440e0da00) (uint64) volume.partition.media_size =3D 61730726400 (0xe5f702200) (uint64) volume.partition.type =3D '0xa5' (string) volume.partition.scheme =3D 'mbr' (string) volume.partition.number =3D 3 (0x3) (int) I'd be particularly interested with feedback from those that have gpt or apple schemes, but feedback from mbr users is just as good (i.e. to let me know it works on more that just my system).
