[Bug 838028] Re: First hard drive not found by ubiquity (VirtualBox)

[Georg]

Actually, I think I just figured out why I see this behavior. It appears
I forgot one crucial piece of information in the bug report; the larger
disk is not empty, in fact it's almost full from a previous test, I
forgot to erase that data. I also missed that the first option is the
"resize" option, not "use entire disk" (for some reason I just assumed
it would be "use entire disk"), but since the larger drive cannot be
resized, it only shows the smaller drive.

So it seems this is not a bug after all, it's just me not reading
carefully enough. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Title:
  First hard drive not found by ubiquity (VirtualBox)

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “ubiquity” source package in Oneiric:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Platform: VirtualBox 4.0.12 r72916 on Ubuntu 10.04 2.6.38-11 generic
  OS: [Kubuntu] oneiric-desktop-i386.iso (Beta 1 20110831)

  Preconditions:
  - Create a machine for Ubuntu in VirtualBox and add 2 hard drives
    - HDD1: SATA0, 15 GB
    - HDD2: SATA1, 4 GB (on the same SATA controller as HDD1)

  Steps to reproduce:
  1) Start machine with Live CD present
  2) Select "Start Kubuntu"
  3) Select "Install Kubuntu"
  4) Click "Forward" to get to the disk partition options
  5) Click on the drop down list under "Manual"

  Expected result:
  - Both hard drives available in the list

  Actual Result:
  - Only the second (smaller) hard drive is available
  Note: If selecting "Manual", both hard drives are available, so it seems like it's ubiquity that only sees one hard drive, but the partition editor sees both.
