I'm also suffering from this bug in Feisty;  gparted is trying to delete
/dev/sda1, re-create it, and then format it to ext3.  /dev/sda is a SATA
IDE drive, not removable or hotplugable in any way.  mke2fs says
"/dev/sda1 is mounted; will not make a filesystem here!".  Funny that,
given gparted happily deleted and re-created the partition successfully.
:-)

I'll try the System -> Preferences -> Removable Drives and Media
workaround above, but an `apt-get update' temporary fix would be good to
stop this foxing others.
