Title:
Gparted can't resize NTFS
To manage notifications about this bug go
Thank for replying!
The problem with Windows's chkdsk is that it corrupts the bad clusters
file (& then ignores that corruption), but when you boot Ubuntu, it
fixes that file when it sees the corrupted values, after which Windows
chkdsk gets run because the filesystem was changed by the ntfstools
I'm the original reporter, but I'm unsure how to check it. I can say
that it does sound plausible as the explanation for what I saw. If so,
then what I did with the Windows internal (chkdsk?) disk checking
utility (whatever it is in the tools from the disk properties?) was
actually resetting or rep
Can the original reporter and maybe some of the other responents please
check if the problem they see/saw is related to the bug in Windows
described here:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=346046#c1
BTW: if somebody knows how to link to Microsoft's bugtracker as the
"upstream project"...
The gparted on other distros doesn't seem to have these problems, even
the same version numbers or earlier all seem to be fine but Ubuntu's one
seems broken somehow

I have the "ntfsprogs" and still have run into troubles with ntfs

Gparted displays a warning icon and cannot resize ntfs partitions if the
"ntfsprogs" package is not installed. This is documented by gparted (
http://gparted.sourceforge.net/features.php ). As a result, Ubuntu's
gparted package suggests the ntfsprogs package.

Any particular reason to think that might be useful? Are you [darb]
saying that it includes a utility to prepare the bad sector information
for the satisfaction of gparted?
Anyway, I am still unsure whether or not to recommend that the bug be
closed. It seems pretty clear that gparted is relying u
apt-get install ntfsprogs

So a couple of weeks ago since this was discovered and reported.
Meanwhile I've already found a clumsy workaround and reported that, too

problem.

I still don't know how to describe it properly... This time I'm trying
to describe the workaround or quasi-fix. After tweaking it for a while,
my hypothesis was that gparted was looking for some information about
the bad clusters which had never been created on the NTFS partition (or
somewhere else
