This is a bit updated set of chain.c32 changes that simplifies a few things (and in partiter part), fixes few minor issues and adds a few new features. Details are in the following commits, below is the summary and pull details at the end. Shao - any chance to peek over them ? Most of those are relatively simple changes and well tested, though of course something might have slipped my attention.

This small set fixes few bugs, improves gpt handling (under buggy conditions) and implements strict flag with more fine grained control which should fix issues with sanity checks against disk sizes. If this set is allright I'd want to do what I mentioned in older discussion with Ady - backport missing patches from 6.x to 5.x and 4.x so all versions have up to date chain version. Michal

Previous version had some issues in case of error situations, among those: - backup gpt header was not read if reading of primary failed - alternating nature of lba_cur and lba_alt was ignored This patch fixes this and extends the gpt handling. The current behavior is: - try primary header; if unreadable or checksum fails (or sanity checks fail unless relax flag is set) - try secondary header

Use <0 for errors, 0 for normal state, and >0 for clean completion. In future this would be necessary if it's decided to make partiter a generic lib (similar to disklib) - though it has to be quieted first and provide strerr()-like functionality in place of its verbosity. diff --git a/com32/chain/chain.c b/com32/chain/chain.c index ae95d45..c08ec6e 100644 --- a/com32/chain/chain.c +++

1) code split and move Iterator related functionality is yanked from chain.c and moved to iterator.{c,h}. Both are moved to com32/chain and this way chain.c is ready for further splitting. Alternatively, partiter could be moved to com32/lib at any time in the future. It's potentially useful for other modules (e.g. if someone wanted to code partition dumper or editor). 2) Iterator updates

1) At the end of main, there's attempt to free cur_part->record, which rarely comes from malloc. Only valid case is if gpt handover was performed and chaining was not successful (cur_part->record is overwritten with gpt specifc handover record). Freeing the handover area has been adjusted. 2) If our current iterator is ebr, parent wouldn't be freed at the end of main. Added generic

Hello, Can anyone please tell me whether guestfish can mount exFAT partitions? I created a full disk image of a drive which contained a single exFAT partition. Was able to mount it with kpartx/FUSE: # kpartx -a -v disk.img add map loop0p1 (252:2): 0 39070078 linear 7:0 2 # mount /dev/mapper/loop0p1 /mnt -o ro FUSE exfat 1.2.3 # ls /mnt foo bar baz etc but not guestfish: $ sudo apt install

So last week I was wondering if XFS was still working -- even with its last on-disk structure changes -- and it _suprisingly_ worked as expected. Right, now I can finally get rid of GRUB and use Syslinux to boot my Linux on EFI from a rootfs with xfs. Shit, I have two partitions (the first one being the required ESP) so there is no way to access the other partitions since because Syslinux does not

Hi Felix, I would prefer having one HDD that works with all three OSes. That would be very convenient. Guess exFAT is my best bet. Its supported on Linux,Win and OS X. What do you reckon?

This is a continuation to the library creation effort for syslinux. I added the necessary ops required to read partitions and sectors off the disk. I'm using it with my com32 module. I did change the interface for read_disk a bit, so it takes a disk_info argument. This way I can maintain multiple instances of read handlers, for example if I'm reading and comparing stuff from two different

1) public index in gpt iterator should not skip empty partitions, e.g. if we have 1st and 3rd gpt entry used, we expect the numbers to be 1 and 3, not 1 and 2 (similary to how linux sees it e.g. /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda3). It's analogous to index / mbr_index fix. 2) free(ebr_part); in mbr iterator was not reachable. ebr iterator takes care of freeing itself and its parent. 3) in ebr iterator,
