Pdrive 0.27
Hi Zigbert,
Great everythings working fine
SATA drives can only have 15 partitions
IDE drives can have up to 63 partitions
my IDE has hda16 but that does include the 3 numbers you loose with a extended partition. So maybe not? I'll try and find the reference at the week-end. Unless anybody out there knows the answer?

Just realised you were talking about number of drives displayed

I read somewhere of the last few weeks while we were playing and remember something like- Supports now up to 15 partitions on one disk. (thanks to JB4x4)

I think there is a bug in func_probe for pdrive 0.19 at about line 349
this needs to empty PART13DISKN and PART14DISKN as well.
Before I fixed it this was causing my USB devices to show twice.

Hi zigbert!
I think there is a little bug. In my example (picture) partition hda1 is shown as swap and mounted, but in fact it is vfat and unmounted.
But apart from that I'd really like the features of pdrive.
great work, thanks

Thanks for feedback!
I think the problem is that your swap has partition nr above 10. That makes 'grep hda1' also find hda10. I have put in a -w: 'grep -w hda1'. This should prevent it to detect hda10 as swap.
Lines 279-282 in /usr/local/pdrive/func_probe
You can also try to replace /usr/local/pdrive/func_probe with the attached file.
Please give report.

zigbert !
I've replaced /usr/local/pdrive/func_probe with the file you attached.
This fixed the detection problem with hda10. Every partition was shown correctly (hda1 as vfat; hda10 as swap).
Thank you.

PS: In your prior post '...This should prevent it to detect hda10 as swap.' you meant hda1, right?

So you highlight your hda1 partition by selecting it and you push mount and you get this message?
Works for me for my hda1 ntfs partition. (with 0.22)
BTW your hda1 doesn't happen to be your /mnt/home one?

1. Could you please confirm this bug. Did you select hda1, and then press 'mount'.JB4x4 wrote:Here is the message shown when trying to mount....
Error - Choose one of the partitions.
2. Could you please post a screenshot of Pdrive and Pmount. I am interesting in what headings it shows. If this is your 15-partition-disc, it would be rather informative
Thanks
Sigmund
Correct, either selecting the partition and pressing (un)Mount or double clicking on the partition result in the same message. Note: I can mount and unmount with the "new" pmount. Refreshing pdrive between shows the current state correctly, but it will not mount or unmount the partition.
