Bug#588045: Guided partitioning: changing partition sizes afterwards not possible

2010-07-24 Thread Holger Wansing
Changing the partition sizes afterwards was possible for example
in the sarge and etch installer.
In the lenny installer and in recent squeeze installer it is no
longer possible.

Bug#588045: Guided partitioning: changing partition sizes afterwards not possible

2010-07-04 Thread Holger Wansing
Package: debian-installer


When using the guided partitioning method, I am told

The installer can guide you through partitioning a disk (using different 
standard schemes) or, if you prefer, you can do it manually. With guided 
partitioning you will still have a chance later to review and customise the 
results.

But it's not possible to change the partition sizes afterwards.
Such changings after the guided partitioning would be IMHO the
mostly used (have the structure created, only customize the
partition sizes).
There were already some installation-reports where user commented,
that the automatically chosen swap size is too big, for example.
Would be great, if it could be possible, to change the size then.


Or the sentence above should be changed:
With guided partitioning you will still have a chance later to review
the results and start partitioning again from the beginning, if needed.
