I've run into a similar problem in a recent install (Wily Werewolf release).

[Bug 1078445] Re: Xubuntu install fail due partition auto mount defeats Gparted
In the past I tried "which udisks2-inhibit" to find the location of the command, but this always returned no results. I didn't dig any deeper because I regularly use Kubuntu and Ubuntu and the problem with automounting does not occur. Today I started my Ubuntu 14.04 Virtual Machine and ran the following command: find / -name udisks2-inhibit -print 2>/dev/null which returned the following result: /usr/lib/udisks2/udisks2-inhibit It seams that this command is in a non-standard location which explains why it didn't show up when using the "which" command. When using Ubuntu 14.04, I have never encountered the problem with automounting of newly created or edited partitions, and I do a lot of testing using Ubuntu and Kubuntu. This make me think the problem might be unique to Xubuntu and perhaps XFCE. To determine if udisks2-inhibit works on Xubuntu, would you be able to test gparted by using the following command line invocation? sudo /usr/lib/udisks2/udisks2-inhibit /usr/sbin/gpartedbin -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1078445 Title: Xubuntu install fail due partition auto mount defeats Gparted To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunar-volman/+bug/1078445/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

udisks2 seems to have an inhibit script written by Martin Pitt, it looks like this is a Debian addition that did not make it upstream to freedesktop: udisks2 (1.99.0-4) experimental; urgency=low * Add debian/local/udisks2-inhibit: Hack to disallow udisks2 mount operations for anyone but root while a program is running.

[Bug 1078445] Re: Xubuntu install fail due partition auto mount defeats Gparted
Thanks Chris for your interest in improving GParted. As far as I know, udisks2 *does not* contain a command to inhibit automounting of devices. In the past I was told that a "udisks2-inhibit" command existed, but I have not been able to locate it. If anyone knows how to inhibit or prevent automounting of devices on systems using udisks2 then I'm all ears. Many other distributions are migrating to systemd. GParted already contains code to prevent systemd automounting. The relevant code can be found at the following link: GParted startup script 'gparted' https://git.gnome.org/browse/gparted/tree/gparted.in If I recall correctly, ubuntu will be migrating to systemd for future releases (14.10/15.04).

The patch to fix this issue in Ubuntu 10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gparted/+bug/588530/comments/12 relies on there being a "udisks" executable and running "udisks-daemon" process. The 14.04 livecd appears to have udisks2 installed which seems to have a different executable and daemon. So it appears that the gparted wrapper hasn't been updated to cope with udisks2 and this problem is going to affect all Ubuntu 14.04 (not just Xubuntu). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1078445 Title: Xubuntu install fail due partition auto mount defeats Gparted To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunar/+bug/1078445/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

There are some hints in the older related bug #588530 ("Automounting not
prevented with GParted in Ubuntu 10.04"). It appears that this could be
a bug in gparted not locking the drive to prevent automounting, or the
automounter not respecting the gparted lock.
