Title:
  Hirsute can not read FAT32

Status in grub-installer package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  this bug is *NOT* related to the installer nor grub-install, in my
  opinion.

  Hirsute GParted can not read (and write??) data on any FAT32
  partition.

  In fact, GParted says:

  "WARNING unable to read the contents of this (FAT32) file system!
  Because of this some operations may be unavailable.  The cause might
  be a missing software package.  The following list of software
  packages is required for fat32 file system support:  dosfstools,
  mtools."

  However, it appears that dosfstools and mtools packages are not
  missing, therefore the bug is somewhere else.

  If I remember correctly, this does not happen with Umate 20.04, only
  Hirsute.

  I replicate this bug with every new daily Hirsute build, including 24
  March.

  Easy to confirm by using GParted to select a FAT32 partition, right
  click, select information.
