Labels: enhancement

Multiple san-booting/uefi related fixes implemented.

  • correctly find disk and partition number for efibootmgr.
  • find now partition start also for multipath (dm-XX) disk
  • save /dev/mapper/mpathX dev names instead of dm-XX names to the disklayout file for btrfs and /dev/disk/by-id/ disks description. Addresses the issue, when /dev/dm-XX is recoreded in disklayout, but dm-XX can by different disk with the same size in the recovery environment.

  • a small bugfix: skip comments and consider also tab-separated entries when scanning fstab for btrfs volumes.
