Public bug reported:
Package:
gnome-disk-utility-3.10.0_1ubuntu3_i386
OS:
LiveDVD Ubuntu 14.04.1 ubuntu 3.13.0-32 i686
Hardware:
Dell Dimension 4550 4mB Pentium 4
Seagate Backup Plus 1TB
I tried to create a disk image of the primary disk's boot partition on an
external USB backup drive.
>From a terminal window:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ gnome-disks
or
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo gnome-disks
The partition to be imaged was not mounted.
The permissions for the destination directory were 'drwxrwxrwxt' [1777]
When I tried to create the image, the error message:
"Error allocating space for disk image file: Invalid argument (g-io-
error-quark, 13)"
appeared.
In the terminal window from which gnome-disks was invoked, there was a
repeating error message until the error dialog was dismissed:
"(gnome-disks:6765): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: g_dbus_interface_get_object:
assertion 'G_IS_DBUS_INTERFACE (interface_)' failed"
** Affects: gnome-disk-utility (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
