Comment 72 for bug 571038

@Martin

I did not know about scsi_debug. I'll see what I can do. But it is likely going to be later this week. And I have to unpatch udisk to actually reproduce it:-)

Otherwise, try creating few logical partitions, then discard offset pointers and replace those with the link pointing to the next partition. In terms of [1] just copy data for "Partition table's second entry" in place of "Partition table's first entry" and fill the former with 00s. You'll actually waste space on disk that was allocated for that partition. I guess GNU/Linux tools are smart enough not to insert such unnecessary stuff if you try to create 0 sized partition.

I have my dumps of my EMBR attached [2] within this post.
