SUMMARY
Although a fully functional disk (ssd) and properly partitioned (see 'lsblk' for /dev/sda), the program "sees" only as a simply 'unallocated' device.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
- not applicable -

OBSERVED RESULT
Program does not show the partitioning *actually* extant in device. 

EXPECTED RESULT
The actual partitioning, obviously.

Comment 1 Andrius Štikonas 2024-10-26 21:31:57 UTC
Please update to some newer version. 4.1.0 is unsupported and has serious security issues that Ubuntu just ignores:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kpmcore/+bug/1903774
Please do not use it 4.1.0.

If possibly, try to see if it still happens on newer versions, but I suspect it might have been fixed.
