The patch is:\n\nhttp://lkml.org/lkml/2006/7/31/117\n\nThe problem is some disk formatters do not blow away the first 4 bytes\nof the disk. If the disk we are installing to used to have AIX on it,\nthen the first 4 bytes will still have IBMA in EBCDIC.\n\nThe install in question was debian etch. Im not sure what the best fix\nis, perhaps the AIX detection code could check more than the first 4\nbytes.\n\nThe whole partition info for primary partitions is in this block:\n\n  dd if\u003d/dev/sdb count\u003d$(( 4 * 16 )) bs\u003d1 skip\u003d$(( 0x1be ))\n\nAll other data do not matter, beside the 0x55aa marker at the end of the\nfirst block.\n\nSigned-off-by: Olaf Hering \u003colh@suse.de\u003e\nCc: OGAWA Hirofumi \u003chirofumi@mail.parknet.co.jp\u003e\nCc: Anton Blanchard \u003canton@samba.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n"

This includes:\n\n     (*) Block I/O tracing.\n\n     (*) Disk partition code.\n\n     (*) All filesystems that are block based, eg: Ext3, ReiserFS, ISOFS.\n\n     (*) The SCSI layer.  As far as I can tell, even SCSI chardevs use the\n     \t block layer to do scheduling.  Some drivers that use SCSI facilities -\n     \t such as USB storage - end up disabled indirectly from this.\n\n     (*) Various block-based device drivers, such as IDE and the old CDROM\n     \t drivers.\n\n     (*) MTD blockdev handling and FTL.\n\n     (*) JFFS - which uses set_bdev_super(), something it could avoid doing by\n     \t taking a leaf out of JFFS2\u0027s book.\n\n (*) Makes most of the contents of linux/blkdev.h, linux/buffer_head.h and\n     linux/elevator.h contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK being set.  sector_div() is,\n     however, still used in places, and so is still available.\n\n (*) Also made contingent are the contents of linux/mpage.h, linux/genhd.h and\n     parts of linux/fs.h.\n\n (*) Makes a number of files in fs/ contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.\n\n (*) Makes mm/bounce.c (bounce buffering) contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.\n\n (*) set_page_dirty() doesn\u0027t call __set_page_dirty_buffers() if CONFIG_BLOCK\n     is not enabled.\n\n (*) fs/no-block.c is created to hold out-of-line stubs and things that are\n     required when CONFIG_BLOCK is not set:\n\n     (*) Default blockdev file operations (to give error ENODEV on opening).\n\n (*) Makes some /proc changes:\n\n     (*) /proc/devices does not list any blockdevs.\n\n     (*) /proc/diskstats and /proc/partitions are contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.\n\n (*) Makes some compat ioctl handling contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.\n\n (*) If CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined, makes sys_quotactl() return -ENODEV if\n     given command other than Q_SYNC or if a special device is specified.\n\n (*) In init/do_mounts.c, no reference is made to the blockdev routines if\n     CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined.  This does not prohibit NFS roots or JFFS2.\n\n (*) The bdflush, ioprio_set and ioprio_get syscalls can now be absent (return\n     error ENOSYS by way of cond_syscall if so).\n\n (*) The seclvl_bd_claim() and seclvl_bd_release() security calls do nothing if\n     CONFIG_BLOCK is not set, since they can\u0027t then happen.\n\nSigned-Off-By: David Howells \u003cdhowells@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Jens Axboe \u003caxboe@kernel.dk\u003e\n"
