Hi, Colin. Do you have time to have a look at a partman issue for
Debian Edu. Our bug is
URL:http://bugs.skolelinux.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1402. The question I
would like to ask is if there is a partman hook to use that will
expose that the requested recipe was rejected and run before the
partition table is touched. I would like to show a dialog to the user
stating that the disk was too small, instead of allowing partman to
pick a different recipe and continue the installation.
I wonder if this really ought to be a hook, or if partman-auto should
just behave differently as standard? After all, in general if automation
fails we stop and present a dialog. Adding a hook for this seems like
overengineering; if the expert recipe fails, an error dialog seems
appropriate in general.
If you want to also prevent use of the standard recipes (since it does
still seem natural for partman-auto to fall back to them), you could
simply remove them; is this possible for you?
