That code was a mostly quick-hack, and at that time, we didn't have
the new partition table analyzer implemented by me, so it was
difficult to support logical partitions. I don't know why you want to
hide any logical partitions, but now it is easy to add support for
logical partitions. If you are interested in this, see the
implementation of the command "parttype".
