extv234 stopped working after update
My ext4 partition stopped working after a software update (it continued working on the kobo just fine, it just wouldn't mount on my computer). Did a factory reset and applied extv234 again, with the same result.
Good find.
Same problem affects external SD cards (for those devices that still come with microsd slots) as well. Which device(s) are you using / did you test this on?
blkid is also called with parameters (like blkid $DEVNAME
in Kobo/udev/sd), your solution doesn't keep this parameter, so it will likely cause other problems to appear.
There doesn't seem much alternative to messing with blkid. Perhaps we could keep the original output and just add the fake output as an extra line, as the current scripts do filtering with grep, they would be happy and whoever wants the real information would also be happy...
I'll have to do some testing for this thing. ;)
I admit at being lazy, this fixed it for me (on a GloHD). I don't have a reader with an external slot, and I am pretty sure I would gobble it up if I guessed how they worked. I missed accepting arguments for blkid, added a diff. I am unsure if it would be better or worse duplicating lines with different TYPEs.
Accepting the pull request, we can always improve it later. Thanks for contributing! :)
(Leaving the issue open for said improvements.)
