I circumvented this bug by 'dd'ing a fresh install onto the WD10EARS. Given that "parted" correctly shows the disk and partitions on it, I'm more inclined to say that the bug is in ubiquity solving (not finding) a solution (-erase disk, -install next-to window, -something else,...). For some reason, it concludes only grub can be installed onto the WD10EARS.
I cannot access easily that disk now. So if you want to solve this, ask me precisely what is needed (status:New → Incomplete). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1765769 Title: ubiquity hard disk not detected To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/parted/+bug/1765769/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
