I'm also affected by this bug. Interestingly even parted crashes in my case; I don't know if this error is related or not. Currently I don't have access to any previous version so I can't test if previous versions work ok. parted /dev/sdc unit s print Model: SanDisk SanDisk Cruzer (scsi) Disk

@Alex Murray: the option doesn't seem to work on my macbook 5,2 OTOH, I finally managed to get ste's grub-efi working. I suspect it didn't work before because I had set the OS X partition to be case sensitive. Some other programs on OSX fail to work with this setting as well, so I would suggest

Hello? Is this Microsoft Support? Fix the bug already, it's been reported since february, it can't be _that_ hard! Or are we waiting for a Service Pack!? Sorry to troll but DO fix the bug already. If I had deleted all my files I would _NEVER_EVER_ in my whole life use Ubuntu again. And you're
