Title:
Format device does nothing in nautilus
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I have two different external USB hard drives attached. Each of them
has just one partition. The devices/partitions are visible in nautilus
on the left hand side. I want to format them, so I do a right click on
the device/partition in nautilus and select "Format...". In response,
NOTHING happens. It's the same thing with both partitions. My
expectation would be that a window opens allowing me for different
options of formatting, like file system type and encryption options.
