This tool, derived from util-linux' partx, reads partition tables on specifieddevice and create device maps over partitions segments detected. It is calledfrom hotplug upon device maps creation and deletion.OPTIONS
EXAMPLE
To mount all the partitions in a raw disk image:- add map loop1p1 (254:4): 0 409597 linear 7:1 3
The loop1p1 is the name of a device file under /dev/mapper which youcan use to access the partition, for example to fsck it:
