Title:
  palimpsest cannot recognize NTFS volumes that it previously created
  upon RAID arrays

Status in “gnome-disk-utility” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-disk-utility

  Ubuntu 10.10
  gnome-disk-utility: 2.30.1-2

  Steps to reproduce:

  1) Use mdadm to create a RAID array.  Example:

  Mount four unpartitioned, unformatted disks the do this:

  sudo mdadm --create --verbose /dev/md0 --metadata 1.2 --level=10
  --raid-devices=4 /dev/sdb /dev/sdc /dev/sdd /dev/sde

  2) Open palimpsest and format /dev/mdo as a volume (no partition
  table) and as an NTFS volume)

  3) Mount /dev/mdo using "name" and using palimsest to mount it.  (it
  mounts at /media/name)

  4) Make the following entry in /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf:

  ARRAY /dev/md0 level=raid10 num-devices=4 metadata=01.02 name=ubuntu-
  server:0 UUID=c60eb2ea:6a911abf:75743422:12ffb49d

  5) Make a mount entry in /etc/fstab for example:

  UUID=23559D7F45CD5191                           /media/bliss    ntfs
  rw,utf8,uid=iceman,gid=iceman,umask=077
  0       0

  6) Reboot

  7) When the system comes back up open palimpsest and notice that the
  partition map for /dev/mdo is hooped.  Also palimsest no longer seems
  to know that /dev/md0 is mounted.
