I just realized that I cannot fully test by using palimpsest as I do
have broken partition table myself. However /lib/udev/udisks-part-id
does report incorrectly partition type for scsi_debug device. Thus I
think I reproduced it correctly. Here is how.
1. Create msdos partition table
2. Use
oops. Disregard previous post as I can't delete it. part-id does report

It turned out that though sfdisk recognized an attempt to write 0-sized

@Mikhail, to be honest, I've just removed the ommiting.. text :)

creating it again using gparted.

@ Mikhail Titov
I'm having the same issue with an Ubuntu 10.10 installation.
I did use the Paragon software to do the partitioning.
I'm using a Samsung SSD as boot device.
sudo fdisk -l reports the following:
Platte /dev/sda: 128.0 GByte, 128035676160 Byte
255 Köpfe, 63 Sektoren/Spur, 15566
Glad to hear that my guess was correct. I personally applied patch I
posted here against udisk source package and rebuilt it. It works for me
in 11.10 and I bet it won't be fixed as it is a bug with Paragon's
software. You can also try to fix partition table as Paul R. Potts (?)
explained above.
I did a reinstall and it started working again. The odd thing is that I
*did* run into this bug when booted from the same CD I did the install
from.

Hello,
Just created an account here so I could comment. I just started seeing
this bug.
Don't know if it will still help, but the output of sudo sfdisk -d
Warning: extended partition does not start at a cylinder boundary.
DOS and Linux will interpret the contents differently.

OK, managed to fix it following this advice:
http://leisurehours.wordpress.com/2010/03/15/partition-table-entries-

That required some repair on the GRUB command line, set root and all
that, then got my system to boot into Ubuntu and had to do both update-
grub and
I feel like the original issue is likely caused by Paragon software that
creates so called empty partitions. All looks like fdisk can remove
those (I didn't know). It would be nice if you tried fdisk -l first as
fdisk reports empty partitions.
P.S. Empty partition means that extended boot record
It would be nice if ubuntu could release patched package first as
crashing update-notifier pissed me off completely.

with apt-get, patched it, and installed it. palimpsest starts just fine.

Regarding #13, I feel like this is the root of the evil. In my case it
also reports type 0x05 for my root linux partition on /dev/sda5 . This
in turn is interpreted incorrectly by find_extended_partition() in gdu-
pool.c that thinks it is an extended partition and goes into infinite
recursion.
