I'm having a similar problem where gparted hangs but I don't think is because of missing floppy drive.
If I start gparted from the terminal here's what I get: ====================== libparted : 1.7.1 automounting disabled ====================== Unable to open /dev/scd0 read-write (Read-only file system). /dev/scd0 has been opened read-only. Unable to open /dev/scd0 - unrecognised disk label. -- gparted hangs "Scanning all Devices" forever (because of /dev/fd0) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/155047 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
