[Bug 571038] Re: palimpsest crash with libgdu:ERROR:gdu-pool.c:2369:device_recurse: assertion failed: (depth < 100)

 

Hello,

Just created an account here so I could comment. I just started seeing
this bug.

Don't know if it will still help, but the output of sudo sfdisk -d

Warning: extended partition does not start at a cylinder boundary.
DOS and Linux will interpret the contents differently.
# partition table of /dev/sda
unit: sectors

/dev/sda1 : start=     2048, size=  2457600, Id= 7, bootable
/dev/sda2 : start=  2459648, size=226342912, Id= 7
/dev/sda3 : start=466890752, size= 21504368, Id= 7
/dev/sda4 : start=228802560, size=238088192, Id= 5
/dev/sda5 : start=228804608, size=233887744, Id=83
/dev/sda6 : start=462696448, size=  4192256, Id=82

This is a ThinkPad with Windows 7. The partitions as I understand them
(as shown by Paragon and gparted) are as follows:

sda1 is NTFS SYSTEM_DRV 1.1 GiB
sda2 is NTFS Windows7_OS 107.9 GiB
then an extended partition with a 111.5 GiB ext4 partition and 1.9 GiB swap
sda3 is Lenovo_Recovery 10.2 GiB

Is the issue that the partitions are numbered out of order as they
appear on disk? This seems to be the way the ThinkPad came from the
factory, although I have added and modified Linux partitions and I admit
I don't fully understand how the partition numbers are generated/stored.
