The partition is quite old and was pre-installed on my old Debian webserver, which I've dist-upgraded to Hoary IIRC.
I've commented out the ntfs line in the blkid_magic struct (./lib/blkid/probe.c) and now it seems to work correctly: # blkid /dev/sda1 /dev/sda1: UUID="70b7d252-5a65-45cd-a949-30569a2cce39" SEC_TYPE="ext2" TYPE="ext3" So, as you've said, apparently the ntfs check is wrong. But I wonder though: are ntfs partitions not supposed to have an UUID? ** Summary changed: - findfs/blkid reports incorrect info / update-grub fails to resolve UUID + findfs/blkid detects ext3 partition as ntfs (without UUID) -- findfs/blkid detects ext3 partition as ntfs (without UUID) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110138 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
