Gparted giving error as soon as program starts
by TheEzekielProject from LinuxQuestions.org on (#583R7)
Hello everyone, I hope this is the right forum for this question
So yesterday Gparted started giving me this error as soon as the program starts up "Partition(s) 4, 5, 6, ... 128 on /dev/sda have been written, but we have been unable to inform the kernel of the change, probably because it/they are in use. As a result, the old partition(s) will remain in use. You should reboot now before making any further changes."
I have not made any changes to /dev/sda and certainly don't have 128 partitions. I have rebooted and the error persists. I have searched the error on google and the few hits I found all related to people actually trying to make changes to a disk, whereas I have not made any. This is the disk my system is installed on. I am running Arch linux
Does anyone have any ideas what's going on or how to fix it? Any help is appreciated
