I'm not entirely sure where dev.ID_ etc are supposed to be coming from, but if it's that `blkid -p -o udev /dev/block/8:0` then I'm afraid CentOS 5's blkid doesn't understand the -p or -o udev options, it doesn't produce any output for whole drives with partition tables, and there isn't a /dev/block directory. It's blkid 1.0.0 from e2fsprogs 1.39-23.el5_5.1. If that knocks CentOS 5 support on the head then so be it...Hmm, udevinfo might be of some use. Still doesn't say it's found a DOS partition table, but it does get you e.g. ID_FS_TYPE=linux_raid_member and perhaps `file -s` will tell you there's DOS partition table (sort of).I'll look into this when I have a new CentOS 5 VM installed on my laptop. I do want lsdrv to work with all of the CentOS 5 releases.
I've been playing with lsdrv in a CentOS 5 VM, and found a number of items to address. The result has been pushed to github, with a detailed description. Please give it a whirl. https://github.com/pturmel/lsdrv (Further bug reports should be posted there... trying to keep the noise down on linux-raid.) Phil
