I also got 'No devices detected', even after editing ld.so.conf

In the terminal window:

======================
libparted : 1.8.8
======================
Invalid argument during read on /dev/hda
Invalid argument during read on /dev/hdc

and after inserting a usb pen:

Invalid argument during read on /dev/sda

Edit:
frugal boot from freedos:loadlin
dsl-4.4RC2

Hmm - I'm a bit stuck with machines to test this on. I tried again with a usb boot on my laptop and gparted detects the ntfs hd - I cannot really do anything with the hd as it has a windows system on it.

My old desktop has scsi hd that will not work with grub and gives the "invalid argument" error mentioned above. If I plug in a usb stick however, it is detected by gparted.

It seems that there's some kind of error in the gparted extension but, without any other hardware at my disposal, I'm not sure what I can do to help fix the problem...
