So we probably ought to supply a fake geometry. An option is now available upstream to specify what drive geometry you want a given dm device to return: dmsetup setgeometry. If no geometry was supplied zeros are returned, as per the man page. In Fedora/RHEL5 but it has not been backported to RHEL4. |
