------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-12 12:33 ------- Actually, I believe that this was fixed so that it's available in the advanced or expert install option. I forgot to try it in my own install of RC2, but I do remember seeing it discussed on the Cooker list. In reply to comment #12, it is still a good option to have. When working with large drives (even those just larger than 50 GB), it's a very lengthy process to use the cursor keys. The mouse/PGUP/PGDN keys move in too large amounts, and having to scroll with the arrows can take forever. Would one of the reporters care to try it again, but with the advanced option (or expert install)? ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: NEW creation_date: description: During partitioning, the "Size in MB" slider should also have a text field so the user can type in the exact size of the partition. For example, I'm currently installing to a VM in VMware, giving it 512 MB of RAM. I'd like to double that for the swap space, for 1024 MB of swap (1 GB). Selecting this with the slider is somewhat tedious as I have to use very tiny movements for the mouse. Being able to type it in, in addition to being able to select it with the slider, would be useful. Shouldn't be difficult either, as there's already a non-modifiable text field above the slider, showing the "Size in MB:". It should be fairly easy to make this text field into a modifiable text field, and link its value to the slider. (I've done such things in Windows, but am fairly new to Linux.) This is Mandrake 9.1 beta 2.
