Description-en: automatically prepare storage devices
Using FAI disk_config files, setup-storage computes effective
partition and volume sizes and executes the necessary commands
to configure storage devices. It manages disk drives as well
as RAID and LVM volumes. It handles all file systems supported
by parted(8) as well as ntfs but is flexible enough to be
extended to further types as well. Once the storage devices
are prepared, an appropriate fstab(5) file is generated.
.
This package provides the setup-storage utility as separate
package so it can be used independent from FAI as well.
