whats wrong with plain old "fdisk -l" having read the available drives from dmsmg or proc ?

Well i think, he wants to use it inside the program. So, issuing something on a command line is totally a different issue. Well, it would be quite costly that way and quite comlex at the same time, involving output redirection and all those stuffs.
