Hi,
the patch can also be pulled from my fork of the git repository at https://github.com/emmericp/syslinux.git <https://github.com/emmericp/syslinux.git> under the branch ldisk-lua-module.
The commit is also available on GitHub if you prefer a website to view the diff: https://github.com/emmericp/syslinux/commit/e1612cb42508fa2f33ceb045a7722fa34664231c <https://github.com/emmericp/syslinux/commit/e1612cb42508fa2f33ceb045a7722fa34664231c>
FAQ since this came up on IRC earlier today:
Q: Why would you need such a module if there is already disk.c32, hdt.c32 and other modules that detect disks?
A: Automation. We’d like to use a Lua script that is executed on all of our servers on boot to collect hardware data, install systems, etc.
The Lua API did not expose information about disks yet, so I wrote this module.
