Description Maciej Pilichowski 2007-05-15 06:09:20 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
Please take a look at:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=438514

After applying it to the disk, after several hours, I don't know in what circumstances, program quit silently. Luckily Gparted moved the partition without any corruption, but I was really scared that something went really badly.

It it was an internal crash, I man bad pointer or something, maybe it would be good, to run gparted via console by default, so the user could take a look at last trace, or something. And maybe gparted should be run in debug mode only. After all, all I/O operations are the bottleneck, not the speed of the code.

Steps to reproduce:


Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?

Comment 2 Laurent de Trogoff 2007-05-15 10:34:26 UTC 
Yes, right, I know there is something wierd here.
this is for main dev (Plors).
I am not able to fix this, this come from GParted not from livecd.

Like I mentioned on the web site
(http://gparted-livecd.tuxfamily.org/news.php), the gparted-livecd is
unfortunately no more supported. I worked on it alone during one year, and I
have no free time anymore to continue. BTW with the new c++ dev we focus on the
source code.

Other good projects are running gparted. One of them is sysresccd :
