I have not upgrade Ubuntu since and so not plan to anytime soon.

I confirm. To fix the problem, just : apt-get remove dmraid libdmraid and reboot The partition table appears as before the migration to Karmic Koala.

[Bug 460790] Re: 9.10 - Ubuntu cannot find partitions on my disk + network will not work
Found a work around or fix. The Long Story: Apparently dmraid took my two partitions. Not exactly sure what it does with them, but it does prevent them from showing up within the /dev directory. I read a lot of forums and found a simple way to have the partition show up as /dev/sdb1. You open the disk with fdisk using: fdisk /dev/sdb and then use the 'w' command to write the same partition table back to the disk. (Please be careful to make sure when you use 'p' command that the partitions are indeed what you expect.) So I did this for /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc, partitions for both of the disks now appeared in /dev. Now I tried to reassemble the mdadm raid and found that it was running in degraded mode. I saw that the partition it was using was dm-0. (Something like that cannot remember exactly). I was confused for a little bit and a bit worried about my data. So a quick google showed that it was dmraid which had taken over. Doing: dmraid -b (command to list the partitions. this is from memory please read the man page to be sure) I got a list of the partitions it was managing. So it appeared that it was working correctly mdadm was just picking up the partitions created by dm-raid as a single disk and saying that it was a degraded array. The fix: I fixed this problem by removing the package dmraid and libdmraid. I also did fdisk /dev/sdb and then rewrote the same partition table (using 'w' command). This would cause the partition /dev/sdb1 to show up! I am not sure if fdisk is really necessary. -- 9.10 - Ubuntu cannot find partitions on my disk + network will not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/460790 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

It worked! I did not need to do the fdisking. -- 9.10 - Ubuntu cannot find partitions on my disk + network will not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/460790 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
[Bug 460790] Re: 9.10 - Ubuntu cannot find partitions on my disk + network will not work
On a completely clean install using 9.10pre I have the same problem. I have mirrored boot drives and it installs fine on them, but when it tries to boot it drops to an initramfs prompt. When I do 'ls /dev/sd*' I see sda and sdc, but none of the partitions. However if I go through the dmesg output, it found all of the partitions (sda1, sda2, sda3, sdc1, sdc2, sdc3) when it found the drives. -- 9.10 - Ubuntu cannot find partitions on my disk + network will not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/460790 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

doing fdisk -l /dev/sdc shows the following information: Disk /dev/sdc: 400.0 GB, 400088457216 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 48641 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Disk identifier: 0xd61abe3d Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdc1 1 48641 390708801 83 Linux As you can see under device boot /dev/sdc1 is there! But it does not appear under file system. I have also tried Fedora 11 and it also has the same problem.

The enternet problem went away after a reboot, but the disks are still showing up without the partitions. -- 9.10 - Ubuntu cannot find partitions on my disk + network will not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/460790 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
