After booting my system with 3 internal SCSI disks /proc/partitions shows the right partition information. When I later turn on an external disk, and do an "echo add-single-device .." /proc/partitions seems to be ... bad. It shows the right SCSI partitions, including the ones on the external disk, but it repeats this information indefinitely. The get_partition_list () seems to doesn't seem to return EOF or so, or the gendisk_head list may have become cyclic. I'm not sure.
