From c3b50730b843f156a36858fa605851bdbe4df6b9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Milan Broz Date: Tue, 3 Mar 2009 16:35:32 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] vgname_from_mda now tries to parse for vgname even if rlocn not defined (there is no metadata area). In most cases it fails in validate_name(), unfortunately there are situatuions, when validate_name is ok and later code fails with checksum error.
