I just put a patch from Marc Martinez into CVS so setup_hardisks
(version 0.12fai) now supports /dev/ida/ and /dev/rd/ devices. This
should work for Compaq SMART2 raid array and Mylex DAC960 PCI RAID
controllers. It was a very simple patch, so it goes into CVS. But my
plans are to completely rewrite this tool, since its code is ugly. The
next version of a non interactive partition tool will use libparted
and should also support raid, lvm,... What else should be included ?
