Hi,
This is a followup for Debian bug <http://bugs.debian.org/401393>.
Could people experiencing this bug please test the attached
lilo_22.7.3-1.4.diff against lilo 22.7.3-1.3?
I don't run lilo nor RAID 1, but I could verify that dmsetup() calls on
major/minor work on my devices and that the patched lilo builds.
Thanks,
