Hey Ian, this is actually something I'm going to look into myself, because of personal interest. Currently, I'm working on another issue (was gone for the holidays) and once that's settled, I'll take a look at this. Best regards, Kerim On 02.01.2016 04:46, Ian Kelling wrote: Doesn't seem

Hey, setup-storage does create that special partition at the end and places it at the beginning of the disk physically. As such it should work. I am currently in the process of overhauling gpt related partitioning. Once done with that, I'll see if I can reproduce this issue. Thank you very

Hey Denny, Type 4 is 16-bit FAT (up to 32M), I see there's some Microsoft partitions. Is the first partition perhaps an MBR that was installed along some previous Windows installation? I only ever see it when I installed Windows on my machine prior to Linux. Maybe you could do the following:

Hey Stefan, When i try the remove the whole disk_config sdb part then setup-storage tries to resize the existing vg and is failing doing that. That's odd behavior, don't think that should happen. Here is the main question, is it possible to create a pv directly on a block device without

Hey Urs, I had just assumed that the btrfs itself is specified like a normal filesystem partition and wrote: primary / 10G-30G btrfs rw That sounds like a good feature request actually. When we worked on the btrfs feature, we focused on the raid functionality. Might have even

Hey, I had totally forgotten this; sorry about that. Yeah, your code is nice, but I really want something small instead of what is basically an entire script(-file). Then again I don't really want to be the person to decide this, so perhaps you could prepare a git patch and just let Thomas
