I am working on an fdisk interface to libparted for GNU/Hurd. Also, I have been working on fixing problems related to libparted in GNU/Hurd.
With, some help from Alfred M. Szmidt. Here is a patch for libparted/gnu.c
which adds a test to determine if the user supplies a path such as /dev/hd2 or
a device type store such as devie:hd2. Please have a look and consider applying
it to libparted. Please feel free to ask any question.
Is this patch applied to parted? I couldn't find parted repository. If it's applied, a note to bug #4710 should be added that when the bug is fixed, parted should use only store_typed_open. (This patch is a hack and if it's applied, it should be reverted when the real bug (in libc and hurd) is fixed.)
Regards, ogi
