does any of the ext4 crates for rust *initialize* a partition? I don't care of being able to read or write it, only "mkfs" part is interesting.

@lkundrak for this i chose rust because google made some nice tools for the dislayout itself: https://github.com/google/gpt-disk-rs
I was able to write a rus program that generates ESP+rootfs GPT partition layout to an image and then it with mkfs.ext4 and mkfs.fat generates partition slices of same size which I rewrite to the apprpriate slots.

@lkundrak sounds like it's for smarter people than me, i would not pass the IQ test to become a legit power user of bcachefs ;-) what can you do if you're born as an idiot.

@lkundrak ok except for zmodem i'm working on "bcachefs of zmodem implementations": https://codeberg.org/jarkko/zmodem2
:-)
i might continue from that to a replacement of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMODEM, which is the competitor to the pre-existing MS-DOS version of the protocol.
