Install to Samsung HD204UI (4k sector)

[NX3]

I've read Ubuntu 10.04 and newer support the 4k sector HDD that WD, Toshiba, Samsung, Seagate are now manufacturing.

I have a Samsung F4 HD204UI 2tb. Its firmware does emulation of classic 512 byte sectors. I've tried installing 10.04 server and 10.10 server and both fail at 33% basically when trying to finalise the partitions. I've search on here and else where but documentation of install to 4k sector HDDs seems hit and miss. Can anyone please advise ? If it is supported can the drive be partitioned using the standard install partition app ?

I have the exact same problem with the Samsung HD204UI HDD. When partitioning the drive it hangs at 33%. The drive has already been patched with the new firmware and has also been checked for errors. Anybody who has an idea on what's going on?

EDIT: Apparently I had to wait 5 more minutes before the partitioning to be finished.
