This bug report is devolving a bit into a general help forum for
gparted. It seems that the core issue of gparted showing disks as being
unallocated when there is an error in the partition table has been fixed
and it now indicates an error with an exclamation mark, and provides
details on what
I have another problem with the same consequences for installing 10.4...
when i start gparted it tells me Unable to satisfy all constraints on the
partition.
Disk /dev/sda: 200.0 GB, 200049647616 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 24321 cylinders

Booted Gparted LiveCD 0.5.2-9.
It recognized my striped drive just fine although I couldn't access or get
details of the NTFS partitions.
I got the following partitions listed in numerical order:
1 - /dev/mapper/pdc_jcchiiabp1 / primary / NTFS / 18.63 GB
2
and mtab (why can't I ad more than 1 file per post?)
cheers

Had some time today to collect information on this.
Booted from the same LiveCD as before (31 march 2010) into the 'try without
installing' desktop.
Mounted both NTFS partitions, as they are now in use for XP (system and data).
These partitions were made from this CD as well, but the installer
Tom, from comment #21 you were seeing an error/warning Can't have a
partition outside the disk!
From looking at the fdisk output, the partition furthest out on the disk
is partition 2
156330239 sectors - End of partiton 2
156330496 sectors - Size of disk device
Partition 2 certainly does
Curtis,
Sorry for not responding earlier. Been quite busy.
You are probably right that these are two separate issues.
ad 1) I will check you described asap and post the results here
ad 2) bug 554582 was mine to start with. I will follow up on that one too where
possible
Just for a laugh:
I'm seeing the same error/warning Can't have a partition outside the disk! on
a striped (fakeraid 0) set behind a Promise Fasttrack100 controller. See bug
554582.
Running off a Lucid LiveCD (march 31, 2010) I could see and access the existing
ntfs partition in Nautilus as /media/local disk, but
Tom, I believe that you have encountered two separate problems.
1) Can't have a partition outside the disk!.
To diagnose this problem, the output from the command fdisk -l -u
/dev/mapper/pdc_jcchiiab would be useful. That way we can determine if
one of the partitions (perhaps the extended
Amazingly, this issue still exists in karmic and lucid.

Sam, which version of GParted are you using?
With GParted 0.5.1 and higher, an exclamation mark will be shown beside
the single unallocated partition if there is a problem with recognizing
the partition table. When you double-click on the exclamation point to
view the error message text.

I'm using 0.5.1. The Warning says Can't have a partition outside the
disk!

The warning comes from the libparted library. With GParted versions
0.5.0 and earlier you would not have seen this warning message. Now you
know the cause of the problem and why GParted and Parted are unable to
work with the partition table.
It appears that there is at least one disk partition

GParted uses a library from the parted project (libparted) to manipulate
partitions. If parted discovers a problem with the partition table, then
GParted will similarly be unable to edit the partition table.
Unfortunately, GParted versions up to and including 0.5.0 do not display

I have the same problem in Ubuntu 9.04 64bit.
I am booting from /dev/sdb1 ... BIOS (hd0,0)
The drive reported as unallocated is /dev/sda... BIOS (hd1,0)
In fact the /dev/sda is partitioned as:

I'm trying to install Gutsy Tribe 5, but I also have this problem with
partitions. Neither GParted or the installer partitioner (I suppose they
are different nowadays?) can see them. Fdisk lists the partitions
normally, and I can see them in Device Manager. I can acces the
partitions normally from
As much as I like the idea of free software, it never fails to frustrate
me. Linux for the desktop is still years behind... Windows 95!! It
doesn't even have a decent Device Manager!! Come on!!
I can't install 7.04 (Feisty Fawn). Gparted says that the disk is
unallocated, and fdisk says: Warning:
BTW, I have Windows XP x64 edition already installed plus the partitions
that were left of a Ubuntu 6 intallation that I never used anymore
because after an update it disabled the network connection forever. Talk
about reasons to be MAD!!!
