Description cheguaka 2007-11-22 00:24:08 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.9) Gecko/20071105 Fedora/2.0.0.9-1.fc8 Firefox/2.0.0.9

Description of problem:
gparted see all disk and partitions of my computer, but exclamations appear beside name of partitions. List of devices at Gparted -> devices appear without the "/dev/" part (sdxx). Requesting information at exclamations, it claims "The device sdxx doesn't exist" . I installed fedora 7 live cd and upgraded to 8 via yum upgrade. In F7 it worked.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
parted-1.8.6-10.fc8
pyparted-1.8.9-2.fc8
gparted-0.3.3-13.fc8 parted-1.8.6-10.fc8 pyparted-1.8.9-2.fc8

How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch gparted
2. Wait to scan devices.
3.

Actual Results:
Can't manage partitions. Device names are resumed as sdxx instead /dev/sdxx

Expected Results:
Partitions should be able to manage.

No exclamation. No summarize routes of partitions.
Seems ok.
