Description Jiri Srain 2005-08-23 08:44:23 UTC 
The reason is that the target map of the proposal is used. It can contain only 
the new partitions (as the rest may have been removed).
Comment 1 Jiri Srain 2005-08-23 08:45:41 UTC 
Thomas, Arvin, how can I make partitioner reread all settings from the disk 
(and lose the cached changed)?
Comment 2 Thomas Fehr 2005-08-23 08:52:59 UTC 
I do not think that you really need to rescan all partitions and filesystems.
You just need to reset to the state nefore any modifications were done,
this you can get by calling Storage::ResetOndiskTarget(). It will forget all
cached changes and revert to the state just after media scan.

Thanks, that helped. Done in SVN.
