Public bug reported: Any media i format to NTFS with gnome-disk can't be used in either my Hisense or Netgear Mediaplayers as it says no disks attached yet the same media formatted to NTFS with either Gparted or Windows works perfectly.
gnome-disks seems to name EXT4 disks differently as instead of sdb1/sdc1 it's just named sdb/sdc? Since upgrading to 19.10 i've started having issues with ubuntu seeing previous gparted EXT4 formatted drives ( that have worked perfectly before ) as suddenly now being read only? Formatting a boot drive with Gparted to EXT4 also hangs during install of ubuntu 19.10 when choosing the install drive or partition and refuses to continue but not when the boot drive has been formatted with gnome- disk it just installs as normal? I've tried this on two desktops and one laptop and they all exhibit the same issues. ** Affects: gnome-disk-utility (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-disk-utility in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1857229 Title: Ubuntu 19.10 unorthodox format?
