Hi Martin, OK, I'll prepare a patch and submit it to linux-block for review. I'll have to refer to your testing back in 2012 since all I can test is whether the patch still allows partition tables on small disks to be recognized at this time (unless Adrian has a 2 TB disk and a SATA-SCSI bridge

Hi Geert, test results at https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43511 indicate the RDB parser bug is fixed by the patch given there, so if Martin now submits the patch, all should be well? (MSDOS partition support is not the only one with limitations - the SGI partition parser also uses

Hi Matthew. You probably put your stick into a cave with ancient sleeping dragons :) Added in linux-m68k mailing list, as they likely have an opinion on how to treat affs + RDB partition support. Also added in Jens Axboe about patching that RDB support broken with 2 TB or larger harddisks

Moving unmaintained filesystems to staging

Recently ncpfs got moved to staging. Also recently, we had some fuzzer developers report bugs in hfs, which they deem a security hole because Ubuntu attempts to automount an inserted USB device as hfs. We have no maintainer for hfs, and no likely prospect of anyone stepping up soon to become hfs
