Vikram Does Linux support raw devices yet? I think I read somewhere that Linux does not support raw devices and has no plans of doing so. I may be wrong though.

Until then it seems that the Linux platform ois not practical for me since we are limited to cooked devices and therfore no control over page size etc.
