Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-utils

When booting live cd and having no real mount points mounted starting the disk analyzer will give you no gui and no complain. When run from the command line by typing "baobab" the message "No mount points detected. Aborted..." is thrown. The gui should of course report this, too and not just silently disappear.

Additionaly a text like "partitions have to mounted in order to be examined" would be a good hint for beginners.
