partitions disappear on running act_prep script about act

[Alb0t]

The partition table lives on the disk.
If you intend to use partitions, you should act_prep before making partitions or only target the partitions for act_prep.
If you partition before running act_prep, running act_prep against the base device deletes all those partitions - in this case you partition nvme0n1 into nvme0n1p1...etc, you would only act_prep nvme0n1p1..etc NOT nvme0n1.

I recently submitted an MR that talks a little about partitions if you want to reference that. https://github.com/aerospike/act/pull/54/files as I think you may have too many

Roger that. Thanks @Alb0t for your inputs.
