Hello all, I would like to know some information on architecture of YALI, and also with regard to the partitioning screen. Is there any documentation on pyparted ?
It seems that Kubuntu installer is very capable of resizing fat32 using the partman (which uses libparted). In that case, is there some reason why it is not included in YALI ? Also, Kubuntu partman it seems uses libparted directly for resize/partitioning tasks (other than for ntfs i believe). So, why is it that YALI calls some other commands like mke2fs/resize2fs etc ? (I am asking because I know nothing about pyparted. It actually seems better to use the commands directly, since those would be relatively bug free.) In my tests, it seems that installing Pardus on a "Free Space" mostly works, but when installing on resized partitions, GRUB installer is not loaded correctly. Is there some way to interact with the installer environment in the console during installation ? This way, more tests can be done, especially running the commands manually which are currently run by YALI using os.popen calls. Has Pardus devel team instituted some test procedures for testing the installer/partitioner ? It would be nice to know the procedure if it exists, so that I can try those here. Thank you in advance for this information. I'm apologise if it causes any delays in your work. Regards, Rajeev J Sebastian
