extra drive in core 12.04

[Esperanto]

Anybody knows what might cause this bug to occur:

http://trac.linuxmce.org/trac/ticket/2140

Possy saids he has extra drives running without issues which seems strange if that ticket is valid.

Just to prove my answer:

I did notice the fresh install of 12.04 it didn't pickup my software raid as it did in 10.04 and 8. I didn't think anything of it because that's what I wanted.

Come to think of it, it also didn't prompt to use the HDD's in my MD's either. Again not an issue for me, because I'm not using them.

Formated MD's the drive to ext4 and it was detected fine.

Yes, thats how I also ended up fixing it. All content lost though.. I think the issue was that a swap partition did not have a UUID.

If someone else also as an issue with a drive that does not get detected first check if it has a uuid:
