Hi Linus,
[copy sent to Linus with inline patch]
Please can you apply the following patch to 2.5.24.
It's a complete rewrite of the LDM driver (support for Windows Dynamic Disks). Below is a one line summary, a full description and the patch.
LDM Driver rewritten. More efficient. Much smaller memory footprint.
The old driver was little more than a stopgap. The new driver is a complete rewrite based on a much better understanding of the database based on much more reverse engineering more able to spot errors and inconsistancies it has a much smaller memory footprint no longer considered experimental accompanied by brief info: Documentation/ldm.txt
