Reverting 7d567af46b4e10ffafb1d0f76b524f5781460598 fixes the problem, so I guess this has to do with the fact that the previous partition objects (those listed in =E2=80=98initial-partitions=E2=80=99) are invalidated or s= omething. Now we need another way to address . Ideas? Thanks, Ludo=E2=80=99.
