I'll try to get tha info as well as the parted version. It might a
somewhat older version, as a mirror was used with Lenny, but not
updated to the newest state, but frozen some time back. (but the
latest FAI version anyway!)

So, you're sure it's the SAN that makes the trouble?

Then, shouldn't setup-storage ignore errors and problems on disks that
should not be changed, aren't even mentioned in the setup storage
config file?
Is that possible, or does parted always try to analyze(or whatever)
all disks attached to the system, and in this case, crash due some
problem?
