[Bug 1479405] Re: no option to auto-resize when booted via 'grub-n-iso'
grub-n-iso is a nickname for booting via grub2 and an ISO file. This is documented at several places in the Ubuntu Wiki and Help pages, and there are some tutorial threads at the Ubuntu Forums.

[Bug 1479405] Re: no option to auto-resize
@ Phill W, The target drive was a USB 3 drive. Could that have caused the confusion? If you think it is wrong to report it as a red bug at the testing tracker, I'm willing to change the test result to passed or even delete my report at the testing tracker. We could also make the testcase optional or even change it to something more relevant for the current version. But I think this bug report should stay, because it describes a real situation. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1479405 Title: no option to auto-resize To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1479405/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Most odd, I've just done this on 64 bit desktop okay.

[Bug 1479405] Re: no option to auto-resize
This time I used mkusb to create a 'clean' boot drive. Now there is an option to auto-resize: 'Installera Lubuntu 15.10 vid sidan av Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS' which translates to 'Install alongside' -o- It seems that the problem was that I booted the installer via grub2 and the iso file: 'grub-n-iso', which seems to have confused the alternatives of the installer. ** Description changed: During isotesting of Lubuntu, I did not get any option to auto-resize, only upgrade 14.04.2 LTS, erase 14.04.2 LTS, erase the whole drive, and 'something else'. It was not possible to run the testcase 'Install (auto-resize)'.
