[Bug 1279313] Re: doesn't recognize Windows 8.1 installation, shows disk as empty

[Phillip Susi]

I think partman-auto is the component responsible for deciding that you
have an existing windows install and offering the side-by-side option.


** Package changed: parted (Ubuntu) => partman-auto (Ubuntu)

Title:
  doesn't recognize Windows 8.1 installation,  shows disk as empty

Status in “partman-auto” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I realize parted is a few releases behind, maybe upstream has this
  fixed already? Basically, the disk is shown as empty, running parted
  manually it complains that it doesn't have a valid fake msdos
  partition table. Partman log attached.
