I use the edgy beta version. When I start gparted, no devices are detected on the following PC. here is the output from lspci: # lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: ATI Technologies Inc RS480 Host Bridge (rev 01) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: ATI Technologies Inc RS480 PCI Bridge 00:06.0 PCI bridge: ATI Technologies Inc RS480 PCI Bridge 00:18.0 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] HyperTransport Technology Configuration 00:18.1 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] Address Map 00:18.2 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] DRAM Controller 00:18.3 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] Miscellaneous Control 00:19.0 PCI bridge: ALi Corporation M5249 HTT to PCI Bridge 00:1c.0 USB Controller: ALi Corporation USB 1.1 Controller (rev 03) 00:1c.1 USB Controller: ALi Corporation USB 1.1 Controller (rev 03) 00:1c.2 USB Controller: ALi Corporation USB 1.1 Controller (rev 03) 00:1c.3 USB Controller: ALi Corporation USB 2.0 Controller (rev 01) 00:1d.0 Audio device: ALi Corporation High Definition Audio/AC'97 Host Controller 00:1e.0 ISA bridge: ALi Corporation PCI to LPC Controller (rev 31) 00:1e.1 Bridge: ALi Corporation M7101 Power Management Controller [PMU] 00:1f.0 IDE interface: ALi Corporation M5229 IDE (rev c7) 00:1f.1 RAID bus controller: ALi Corporation ULi 5287 SATA (rev 02) 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS480 [Radeon Xpress 200G Series] 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetLink BCM5789 Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express (rev 11) 03:15.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): VIA Technologies, Inc. IEEE 1394 Host Controller (rev 80) When I start parted, I can see the partitition table for /dev/hdb: # sudo parted /dev/hdb GNU Parted 1.7.1 Using /dev/hdb Welcome to GNU Parted! Type 'help' to view a list of commands. (parted) print Disk /dev/hdb: 200GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: msdos Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 32.3kB 73.4GB 73.4GB primary ntfs boot 2 73.4GB 105GB 31.5GB primary ext3 3 105GB 107GB 2056MB primary linux-swap It also works, when I specify /dev/hdb to gparted: sudo gparted /dev/hdb The problem is, that "sudo gparted" doesn't show any disks. That is also a big problem in the installer, since there is no target for the installation. ** Affects: gparted (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Needs Info -- No devices detected in gparted https://launchpad.net/bugs/66676 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
