Comment 34 for bug 1060484

In either OS, I just unlock the partitions from the launcher, fire up gparted, and they reappears. ALL partitions on the hard drive that contains the OS being run except that OS and the swap. Partitions on other disks do not show up.

Grub2 lives on /dev/sda but none of the sda partitions get locked to the launcher because the OS that I am running exists on /dev/sdb. The same locking behavior existed when the only hard drive was /dev/sda.
