From 0a242386254066b45a9ab6dbdfa902575402df9b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alison Chaiken Date: Sun, 25 Jun 2017 16:43:19 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] GPT: fix error in partitions string doc The existing partitions-list parsing in cmd/gpt.c passes a value from gpt_default() to set_gpt_info() that README.gpt suggests should begin with 'partitions='. Partition-list strings should in fact begin with 'uuid_disk', as otherwise the call from set_gpt_info() to extract_val() to find 'uuid_disk' will fail. Change README.gpt accordingly. Changes since v6: none.
