Subject: [PATCH] 2.4.18-rc3 Minor LDM fix

Hi Marcelo,

Please can you apply this minor patch to fs/partitions/ldm.c
(support for Windows Dynamic Disks)

Cheers,

Some people have problems reading the end of the LDM database
which is at the end of the physical disk. This patch reduces
a couple of minor checks, to just debug output.
