[Bug 42003] no root file system

[tyler]

Public bug reported:

Affects: gparted (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
Trying to install dapper from ubuntu-6.06-beta2-live-amd64.iso. Disk
partioner (which I think is gparted) hangs with the message "no root
file system". I've tried three times with same result.

Partitioning scheme looks like this: 
sda1 = dell utility
/ on sda2 70G reiserfs
swap on sdb1 4G
/var on sdb3 12 G reiserfs

hardware is brand new dell precsion 380 with a pentium D920, 4G ram and
2 74G WD statas

The live cd itself and all apps seem to run just fine.
