Amending description. ** Summary changed:
- migration introduction on liveCD is wrong about partitioning + Switching From Windows guide needs to explain the guided partitioning option rather than manual partitioning ** Description changed: in the text about moving to a dual boot system, the introductory text explains that you have to select "manual" repartitioning, then create a swap space of at least 500meg.. etc, etc. - So you prepare yourself for that bit of linux unpleasantness... then in the repartitioning tool there's a new option.. guided repartitioning of an existing partition. - Perfect, you think, but then you remember dire warnings of erasing your windows partition, and remember it said to go into manual mode... - but in fact the guided repartitioning works great. - - But it's at the stage where windows users taking their first plunge are - most nervous, and this doesn't help remove the fear, as the "helpful" - instructions are wrong... so what hope is there of accurately preserving - my windows partition? + However this isn't correct: the livecd installer contains a new guided + repartitioning tool which is simple to use and works fine. The guide + should therefore be updated to explain how to use this tool. -- Switching From Windows guide needs to explain the guided partitioning option rather than manual partitioning https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/176343 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
