Talking about partman and usability: I had a hard time figuring out that you can actually *select* the partitions displayed above the three options there at the bottom, seperated by a blank line. Due to this blank line, I was under the impression that they'd be just a summary of the detected partitions and you'd have to do something else to actually manually partition your harddrive. So it took me like 10 minutes, restarting partman a couple of times and staring blankly at the screen before I managed... Of course, this is probably because I did not read the instructions I guess, but having a visual clue that this is just a big list you can select would be nice. Dunno if this is possible with the dialog debconf frontend, perhaps a different background for all the options? Also, this observation was a while ago, before Beta-3 I think. So excuse me if things have changed since then. cheers, Michael -- Michael Banck Debian Developer [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.advogato.org/person/mbanck/diary.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
