If grub4dos does not tolerate whatever the difference is, then either the difference is faulty, or grub4dos is. Since Windows accepts it, that would indicate that the fault lies in grub4dos. -- gparted with dmraid causes incorrect NTFS formatting via mkfs.ntfs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/601859 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

surely logic dictates; windows partition/formatting creates a filesystem to the correct standard, grub4dos is happy with this. dmraid/gparted/ntfs-3g/mkfs.ntfs creates a filesystem that isnt the same in some way, if grub4dos doesn't like it. if windows and ubuntu is happy with the latter it seems to indicate it is more tolerant of a 'difference', not that grub4dos is faulty.

If both Ubuntu and Windows recognize the volume correctly, and it is only grub that does not, then the bug lies in grub. Just to make sure, can you try running a chkdsk /f on the volume from windows and then see if grub still does not recognize it. -- gparted with dmraid causes incorrect NTFS formatting via mkfs.ntfs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/601859 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 601859] Re: gparted with dmraid causes incorrect NTFS formatting via mkfs.ntfs
If you reformat in gparted does it then become NTFS? This is what I found. Could you try it on a non dmraided drive as well? Most people will only use NTFS in linux with premade partitions when dual booting so its possibly a bug between gparted and ntfs-3g. -- gparted with dmraid causes incorrect NTFS formatting via mkfs.ntfs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/601859 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 601859] Re: gparted with dmraid causes incorrect NTFS formatting via mkfs.ntfs
Hi, I dug out an old SiL (3112?)PCI RAID adapter last night, hooked both drives up as before, created a new raid set - booted into Ubuntu 10.04 live I used fdisk and mkfs.ntfs manually and got the exact same problem as on the Intel controller, the NTFS filesystem is being created oddly and grub4dos etc doesn't recognise it as NTFS. Then booting into a Windows PE disk and using a formatting program rendered a 'normal' NTFS format. -- gparted with dmraid causes incorrect NTFS formatting via mkfs.ntfs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/601859 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
