Solution if you want to fix it permanently yourself without patching udisks - see Bug #1093901 comment #3 - worked for me.
- Problem was nested extended partition - Easy check that you are affected - sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda (if problematic disk is /dev/sda) returns first row "omitting empty partition (5)") - Proper check - sudo dd if=/dev/sda2 count=1 | hexdump returns only 1 extended partition with type 05 (if extended partition is /dev/sda2) As I have written above - solution here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udisks/+bug/1093901/comments/3 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-disk-utility in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/571038 Title: palimpsest crash with libgdu:ERROR:gdu-pool.c:2369:device_recurse: assertion failed: (depth < 100) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-disk-utility/+bug/571038/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
