[Bug 1077565] [NEW] installation doesnt detect windows dynamic disk
Public bug reported: Linux is incompatible with windows dynamic disks and cannot be installed alongside windows in such a disk. The ubuntu installation routine does not detect that a drive is a windows dynamic drive and reports the disk structure incorrectly. For details see http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=46t=116723p=646747#p646747 No warning is given to the user. If the user were to install to what ubuntu thinks is a partition, data loss is likely. Expected: The install routines should check if the disk is a windows dynamic and if so, should only allow complete overwriting of windows, or stopping the installation. It should not allow the user to try to install dual boot. Ideally, it would give the user suggestions on backing up their windows data and point to how the drive might be converted back to basic. This bug affects other distributions also, so this is probably affecting upstream as well (I didn't try a debian install). This occurred trying to install Ubuntu 12.04, 32 bit from a liveCD. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: installation -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1077565 Title: installation doesnt detect windows dynamic disk To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1077565/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
