Fresh SD Cards Not Read about osid-python3 HOT 4 OPEN

Could try to list all the devices in "/dev" then capture only /dev/sd* listings. (/dev/sda, /dev/sdb, /dev/sdc). But then after that validate that they are sd cards somehow.

Never ran into that issue before. let me see if I can replicate it.
And I'll test a few things out. Let me know if you come up with a solution and if we can add it.

listing all devices in /dev then looking for devices didn't seem very effective.
'sudo fdisk -l' did work for me though (l being lowercase L).
The backend should have started with the su crontab, so there shouldn't be any issues with root access. (hopefully)

on the snap side note, you can fork the code and port to whatever you want. I don't mind at all!
I have not heard of snap, just did a quick search, looks like scratch? Would love to see how that project turns out!

Note: found a solution in this question https://codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/152486/parsing-the-lsblk-output

using lsblk might be better, no root access needed. and can display just the disk names and size with the command "lsblk -d -o name,size -n". Will list the mmcblk0 (rpi disk) so will just have it ignore it.
