zed: Ignore false 'atari' partitions in autoreplace
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
libudev will sometimes falsely identify an 'atari' partition on a
blank disk, preventing it from being used in an autoreplace.  This
seems to be a known issue.  The workaround is to just ignore the
fake partition and continue with the autoreplace.
