Title:
Palimpsest doesn't allow precisely-sized partitions
Status in “gnome-disk-utility” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Palimpsest doesn't allow precisely-sized partitions. I need to be able
to specify the size of a new partition at creation time in Bytes (not
MiB, GiB, or TiB).
Not that it matters, but the reason I need to do so is because I have
an existing RAID5, and I wanted to make a new partition on a new drive
to add to the RAID, and doing so automatically (by selecting the RAID
in palimpsest and trying to add the unformatted drive) doesn't work
(the partition size it creates is too small), and I cannot do it
manually, because the slider input field is too coarse. I need to be
able to enter the partition size manually, using my choice of units.
