Public bug reported: Dont partition makes not possible to open in Windows?
1TB external USB HDD. In DISK UTILITY Formated using: Dont partition and & FORMAT VOLUME to FAT (not possible to NTFS) In windows 7 i plugged it in and it doesnt show up. In windows 7 in control panel i open Administration- Computer Management In there Disk management. I see there is my external USB HDD but it has option only to Format Volume. I do that using not format to NTFS but dont partition. In windows it doesnt work until i dont format it also so My Computer pops up asking to format. I dont wanted that. So it created Volume and without partitioning. I put it now in Ubuntu and got this pop up- see screenshot.
