2006-12-17 16:08:16 Jerome Haltom description Binary package hint: nautilus This bug may in fact be part of HAL. Nautilus for me lists two volumes which I am allowed to mount: 245 MB Volume and a 59.6GB Volume. Double clicking these icons in Nautilus CORRUPTS MY DATA. The 245 GB Volume is representative of /dev/sda2, which is in actuality an EVMS volume which is ALREADY MOUNTED as /dev/evms/boot. The 59.6GB Volume is the "first 59.6GB" of a 400GB XFS file system which spans /dev/sda4 and a few different MD devices. This is ALREADY MOUNTED as /dev/evms/shares. This is DANGEROUS.

Data corruption by nothing more than a double-click is a bit evil. I'm unsure if this effects previous distro releases.

So we now need to find out a command or another method which reliably detects whether or not a given device is an EVMS component.
