If yes, try to see more logs by clicking Details button. Running "cat /sys/block/sdb/ro" might tell you if device is read only. Running "dmesg" in terminal might also give some clues. ntfs-3g is needed but I think in this case error happens much earlier. You can't even create partition (formatting partition happens after first creating unformatted partition). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
