2015-08-21 01:40:31 Mathew Hodson description Formatting a SD card using the disk utility fails with an error message "Error formatting disk - Error synchronizing after initial wipe: Timed out waiting for object (udisks-error-quark, 0)" Steps to repro: Launch the disk utility Plug a SD card into the computer Select the SD card and click on the gears icon at the top right of the application From the drop down menu, select "Format Disk" maintain the default setting and select Format Acknowledge warnings After format process has been going for a while, the error message shown above pops up Workaround: After selecting the SD card, instead of clicking the gear icon to format, click the partition in the "Volumes" section. Delete the partition ("minus" icon) Create a new partition ----- The underlying problem is that the "wipefs" tool from util-linux does not work any more. === TEST CASE === $ sudo modprobe scsi_debug dev_size_mb=200 # this creates a new /dev/sdX, usually /dev/sdb; check dmesg! # now create a partition table $ cat <<EOF | sudo sfdisk /dev/sdb # partition table of /dev/sdb unit: sectors /dev/sdb1 : start= 32, size= 409568, Id=83 /dev/sdb2 : start= 0, size= 0, Id= 0 /dev/sdb3 : start= 0, size= 0, Id= 0 /dev/sdb4 : start= 0, size= 0, Id= 0 EOF # now create an ext4 file system: $ sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1 # check contents: $ sudo blkid -p /dev/sdb /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdb: PTTYPE="dos" /dev/sdb1: UUID="4bd1c542-a61f-43c4-a7e5-cc50e66e6b5a" VERSION="1.0" TYPE="ext4" USAGE="filesystem" PART_ENTRY_SCHEME="dos" PART_ENTRY_TYPE="0x83" PART_ENTRY_NUMBER="1" PART_ENTRY_OFFSET="32" PART_ENTRY_SIZE="409568" PART_ENTRY_DISK="8:16" # wipe: $ sudo wipefs -a /dev/sdb # now check contents again $ sudo blkid -p /dev/sdb /dev/sdb1 # in the broken case, you will still see a "dos" partition table and the ext4 partition; in the working case, /dev/sdb won't show anything and /dev/sdb1 does not exist any more ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 Package: udisks 1.0.4-6 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-15.23-generic 3.5.4 Uname: Linux 3.5.0-15-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.6.1-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 CustomUdevRuleFiles: 51-android.rules 51-android.rules~ Date: Mon Oct 1 15:07:46 2012 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Alpha amd64 (20120720.1) MachineType: FOXCONN NT-A2400&NT-A3500 ProcEnviron:  TERM=xterm  PATH=(custom, no user)  LANG=en_US.UTF-8  SHELL=/bin/bash ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.5.0-15-generic root=UUID=fcc445e4-9662-47cc-855d-ca17ad1c2a87 ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 SourcePackage: udisks UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) dmi.bios.date: 03/29/2011 dmi.bios.vendor: American Megatrends Inc. dmi.bios.version: 4.6.4 dmi.board.asset.tag: To be filled by O.E.M. dmi.board.name: NT-A2400&NT-A3500 dmi.board.vendor: FOXCONN dmi.board.version: FAB 1.0 dmi.chassis.asset.tag: To Be Filled By O.E.M. dmi.chassis.type: 4 dmi.chassis.vendor: FOXCONN dmi.chassis.version: To Be Filled By O.E.M. dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnAmericanMegatrendsInc.:bvr4.6.4:bd03/29/2011:svnFOXCONN:pnNT-A2400&NT-A3500:pvrFAB1.0:rvnFOXCONN:rnNT-A2400&NT-A3500:rvrFAB1.0:cvnFOXCONN:ct4:cvrToBeFilledByO.E.M.: dmi.product.name: NT-A2400&NT-A3500 dmi.product.version: FAB 1.0 dmi.sys.vendor: FOXCONN [Impact] Formatting a SD card using the disk utility fails with an error message "Error formatting disk - Error synchronizing after initial wipe: Timed out waiting for object (udisks-error-quark, 0)" The underlying problem is that the "wipefs" tool from util-linux does not work any more.
