Hi!

Am I experiencing unique crash w.r.t. partition check?

It crashes

#endif
#ifdef CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDE
int tested_for_xlate = 0;

read_mbr:
#endif
printk( "Reading partition table\n" );

if (!(bh = bread(dev,0,get_ptable_blocksize(dev)))) {
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
printk(" unable to read partition table\n");
return -1;
}
data = bh->b_data;
#ifdef CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDE

Here. Actual crash is in get_hash_table, path is getblk, bread,
findkey (??!), check_partition. It is present from 2.3.18ac10.
