In my humble opinion, besides fixing the OS detection and ambiguous labels, a final confirmation step should be added after the simple/advanced partitioning step (like others have suggested).
That step should detail the partitioning changes and warn the user that clicking "Install Now" will write the changes to disk and ask for confirmation. Something like the Ubuntu installer used to have: http://linux4us.org/images/ubuntu_8.10/install7.png It could also display the "before" and "after" disk(s) partitions in that step, or before in the simple partitioning step like it used to: http://www.dedoimedo.com/images/computers_new_1/ubuntu-install- partitioning.jpg The older versions of the Ubuntu installer made a better job here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1265192 Title: Install/reinstall wipes out all/other partitions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/elementaryos/+bug/1265192/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
