Martin,
thanks for taking action and sending updates for 2.4.19-pre3. I am happy to report that it generally works, and with the partition code it recognises ECKD volumes.
I would very much prefer if you sent future updates in plain diff -u to linux-kernel too. I appreciate tarballs that you sent to me, but this is not quite what would prevent broken kernels in the future [it helps Red Hat to ship working kernels, but it does not help Marcelo]. As it was with 2.4.18, Marcelo has no choice but to accept all code that belongs to your authority and to fail every else, producing inconsistency. Posting to linux-kernel beforehand is supposed to start a discussion that may guide Marcelo to accept changes to generic code. I will send the example with the partition code immediately.
