This is a full rewriting of halinfo. I started a new thread because the title “halinfo” became misleading and I renamed the script “partinfo”. It can still optionally query the haldaemon but it now defaults to udev. It shows the mount point (instead of a star) for mounted partitions and displays mounted partitions in red in the color output (when the option -c is used).
Get the script from here for color output: http://unixversal.com/linux/openSUSE/partinfo22.tgz. I had to remove the escape sequences from the code before posting (so the color won’t work in the script posted here).
Syntax displays:
[b]partinfo[/b] device mountpoint filesystem label uuid
[b]partinfo -v[/b] device mountpoint filesystem label uuid start sector size (in MB)
[b]partinfo -V[/b] device mountpoint filesystem label uuid disk ID start sector size (in MB)
Use the option -c for color input. Don’t use this option while posting the output here!
Use the -h option to query hal (but hal should not be running anymore in most cases)

#: Last Edit : Tue Jun 14 02:55:39 PDT 2011
#: Author : Agnelo de la Crotche (please_try_again)
#: Version : 2.2
#: Description : displays partitions properties from hal or udev daemons
#: : this is based of halinfo but using udev as default
#: usage : partinfo
#: options: : -u --udev : query udev database
#: : -h --hal : query hal database
#: : -v --verbose : verbose output (display offset and size of the partitions)
#: : -c --color : more readable colored ouput
