In the past, linux allocated 16 device numbers for the SCSI driver which has device names of the form /dev/sdX (versus the IDE driver with device names of the form /dev/hdX). One device number was used for the device itself (/dev/sda), and the remaining 15 device numbers were used for the partitions (/dev/sda1 up to /dev/sda15).
It would seem that this limit of 16 device numbers must have changed along the way. Since GParted uses the libparted library from the Parted project, I anticipate that an enhancement will be needed in the libparted library to detect if partitions higher than sda15 are in use. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/605975 Title: gparted does not show key icon in mounted partition -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
