Bug Description
Binary package hint: gparted
If Verbatim Store'n'Go Pinstripe USB drive is mounted before starting gParted, gParted crashes after starting to scan for devices. If gParted is started before mounting the stick, everything works fine until you ask gParted to refresh devices at which point the program crashes without launching apport. I'm using ubuntu 10.10 64-bit. Here's what it says on the terminal:
=======
libparted : 2.3

Assertion (head_size <= 63) at ../../.
How large is this USB drive (e.g., 4 GiB)?
What file system is being used (e.g, FAT32, NTFS)?
What is the output from the following command:
sudo parted /path-to-device unit s print
Where: /path-to-device is something like /dev/sdc
This is the device location for the USB drive
