Created attachment 120180 [details] Partition table of /dev/sdc is shown in KDE Partition Manager, GNOME Disks and lsblk SUMMARY My USB stick was formatted with creating only one NTFS partition, but Partition Manager doesn't show it. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Fully format device (and don't create any partition table) 2. Format in NTFS in Windows 7 3. Plug formatted device in PC with KDE neon 4. Open KDE Partition Manager and open information about plugged device OBSERVED RESULT Device has "impossible" partition table (29,09 GiB device has partitions located after 867,16 GiB of free space) EXPECTED RESULT Device has only one 30 GiB NTFS parition SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: 7 Home Premuim Operating System: KDE neon 5.15 KDE Plasma Version: 5.15.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.58.0 Qt Version: 5.12.0 Kernel Version: 4.15.0-50-generic OS Type: 64-bit ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Dolphin file manager and GNOME Disks show information as it is shown in Windows. Bug is like on Bug 281289 (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=281289).
I think that's duplicate of #400652. Although, I'm not sure why it shows "impossible" partition table. Can you paste output of lsblk /dev/sdc sudo sfdisk /dev/sdc --json *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 400652 ***
Hmm, now that you posted lsblk output, it seems that the bug might be there. I don't think other programs explicitely try to ignore bad partition table, but maybe libparted does it for them. In any case... Well, since kde partition manager shows exactly the same thing as lsblk, I don't think we should try to work around it in KDE Partition Manager. I would suggest opening bug against util-linux: https://github.com/karelzak/util-linux
