From: Karel Zak Date: Mon, 8 Feb 2010 16:45:42 +0000 (+0100) Subject: fdisk: don't check alignment_offset against geometry X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f8798c848125a412593d600a48854bee04d65a8e;p=util-linux fdisk: don't check alignment_offset against geometry The alignment_offset is compensation for DOS compatible partitioning. It usually matches with disk geometry (e.g. 63 sectors), but the offset is also exported from phy.disks to RAIDs there the geometry don't match with the offset. So.. don't print unnecessary warning.
