redhat 9 has the same problem, maybe the new version 2.11z is ok :-? If you use partx, this message does not appear. When you use fdisk, this message is valid because of the way fdisk is implemented. Until fdisk's implementation changes to not require a reboot, the message will stay. I cannot say if/when fdisk's implementation will change, although I agree it would be a useful feature in the future. |
