Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gparted
I worked around this but it was still strange. I'm running Feisty as a
dual-boot with WinXP on Lenovo's Thinkpad T60, and at the time this
happened my partitions were: NTFS, ext2,ext3,ext3, unallocated, linux-
swap. I wanted to expand the swap partition left-ward, so I swapoff'd
and tried resizing it. GParted immediately quit when the operation was
apparently done, but when I opened it up it listed the newly sized
partition as 'unknown'. Formatting it as a swap again didn't help. I
rebooted; it still wouldn't recognize it; then, I reformatted it as
ext2, then re-reformatted it as a swap, again, and now it recognizes it.
** Affects: gparted (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
