2015-04-09 15:55:17 Mauricio Faria de Oliveira description The packages for libparted and kpartx don't have the patches for using device-mapper (multipath/LVM) on 4k-sector disks (generally: 'non 512-byte sector disks') This causes the number of sectors of each device-mapper partition to be 1/8th (512/4096) of that expected. These 3 errors were identified: 1) Partition sizes on multipath/LVM are 1/8th of the intended size 2) The filesystem on the underlying device is not-accessible (only in the dm mapped device) 3) grub-install fails w/ 'Unknown filesystem' The 2 patches attached contains upstream patches from parted and multipath-tools, and fix the issues (the installation finishes without errors and the system boots). The packages for libparted and kpartx don't have the patches for using multipath (actually device-mapper) on 4k-sector disks (generally: 'non 512-byte sector disks') This causes the number of sectors of each device-mapper partition to be 1/8th (512/4096) of that expected. These 3 errors were identified: 1) Partition sizes on multipath are 1/8th of the intended size 2) The filesystem on the underlying device is not-accessible (only in the dm mapped device) 3) grub-install fails w/ 'Unknown filesystem' The 2 patches attached contains upstream patches from parted and multipath-tools, and fix the issues (the installation finishes without errors and the system boots).
