Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubiquity
Setting up Ubuntu Gutsy mounts the EISA tools partition (marked as
Compaq diagnositcs in fdisk) as a separate DOS partition.
Windows XP on the other hand doesn't allow you to mount these partitions
from Windows or do anything much with them - despite the fact that they
are essential FAT32 DOS partitions.
What is happening on my laptop (Lenovo N100 running rescue/recovery 3 in
the EISA partition) is that the EISA tools are making strange
alterations to the partition's boot sector, which is then picked up by
Gutsy's fsck as an error it can't fix (boot sector backup != original)
Is it wise to automatically add EISA partitions to the /etc/fstab?
