#13 QTParted doesn't work on Smart Array control
The HP/Compaq smart array raid controllers use this
format for device
Smart Array 2DH, Smart Array 2, etc
Drive
/dev/ida/c0d0
Partition
/dev/ida/c0d0p1
/dev/ida/c0d0p2
Smart Array 5300, Smart Array 6400, etc
Drive
/dev/cciss/c0d0
Partition
/dev/cciss/c0d0p1
/dev/cciss/c0d0p2
QTParted needed 2 modifications one in qp_devlist.cpp
and a few in qp_libparted
I am new to CVS and sourceforge so I am not sure If I
have access to checkout and checkin files so I will
just post the diff here. There may be better or
other ways to do this, but here it is
qp_devlist.diff

To get this patch to work on Knoppix, I had to change all
references of 'startsWith' to 'contains'. This is because
all the devices in Knoppix are /UNIONFS/dev/name, not /dev/name.
Otherwise many thanks for the patch.
