[Fwd: Bug#215662: while resizing, repeatedly tries to access various partitions in devfs]

[Timshel Knoll-Miller]

Hi Andrew,

Here's a bug that was submitted to the Debian BTS some time ago. Sorry I
haven't gotten around to forwarding it earlier ...
Hope things are well for you. It would be good to catch up again
sometime... I haven't made it to a LUV meeting for ages :-(

Cheers,

Timshel
