Public bug reported:
this bug is *NOT* related to the installer nor grub-install, in my
opinion.
Hirsute GParted can not read (and write??) data on any FAT32 partition.
In fact, GParted says:
"WARNING unable to read the contents of this (FAT32) file system!
Because of this some operations may be unavailable. The cause might be
a missing software package. The following list of software packages is
required for fat32 file system support: dosfstools, mtools."
However, it appears that dosfstools and mtools packages are not missing,
therefore the bug is somewhere else.
If I remember correctly, this does not happen with Umate 20.04, only
Hirsute.
I replicate this bug with every new daily Hirsute build, including 24
March.
Easy to confirm by using GParted to select a FAT32 partition, right
click, select information.
