[Bug 2045535] [NEW] Only one disk shows in Xubuntu auto-resize partitioning dialogue

[Jane Atkinson]

Public bug reported:

The ISO version is Xubuntu Noble 20231204. I tried to report this from
the ISO using apport-bug, but it wouldn't play.

When installing on an Acer TravelMate 4740 laptop, I may have a bootable
SD card in the slot. If I forget to take this out, the installer wants
to install to it and won't let me select the main (500GB) drive. (It is
not even a greyed-out option.) As far as I'm aware, no other testcase is
doing this.

I would expect the installer to default to the large drive, or at least
give me the choice of which drive I want to install to.

If I remove the SD card, the installer finds the larger drive without
problems.
