[Bug 269662] Re: Creating a new partition
I imagine that the reporter has now moved on from this situation. However, people in similar situations should see the following page for ways to refresh the kernel's view of the partition table after adding partitions: http://serverfault.com/questions/36038/reread-partition-table-without- rebooting Running partprobe on the disk device worked for me: sudo partprobe /dev/sda I imagine that the need to do this originates in some behavioural change in the 2.6.24 kernel or earlier. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269662 Title: Creating a new partition To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udev/+bug/269662/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 269662] Re: Creating a new partition
Please provide the complete output from fsck when you _created_ that partition: I expect you'll find a notice that it issued the ioctl() to reload the partition table, and that ioctl failed. ** Changed in: udev (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- Creating a new partition https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269662 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
