[Bug 19732] Re: resize takes a lot of time without user-feedback
in my case I wanted to setup ubuntu 10.04 on a 7 year old pc with a 7 year old pata 80gb wd blank hdd, which was previously ntfs formated. the drive had only 1 partition, went to change its size plus turn it to swap. since I clicked ok to begin, about 30 minutes or more have passed and it is still at 61%. I believe its an operation that should complete very very fast. I though of posting this here while it is doing it next to me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/19732 Title: resize takes a lot of time without user-feedback To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/partman-partitioning/+bug/19732/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I just had this issue as well. I'm a Sysadmin/dev by trade and this bug puzzled even me. Lucky for Google where I found other users complaining of this and they just waited it out. Please fix. Joe Blow shouldn't have to get stuck on something like this if Ubuntu is supposed to be as simple as advertised. I can see someone rebooting after they've already screwed their partition tables... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/19732 Title: resize takes a lot of time without user-feedback -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@ Colin, I apologize if I made incorrect assumptions. Please look at bug 659106 and related bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/659106/comments/6 We're well past my opinion and absolutely into destructive behavior regarding the new ubiquity. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/19732 Title: resize takes a lot of time without user-feedback -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Nothing has been done about this bug. It should stay open; nobody should ask for repeated reconfirmation from users; and it shouldn't be marked Won't Fix, because it is a real bug that should be fixed at some point (it's just not easy). ** Changed in: partman-partitioning (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Triaged ** Changed in: partman-partitioning (Ubuntu) Assignee: Colin Watson (cjwatson) = (unassigned) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/19732 Title: resize takes a lot of time without user-feedback -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for posting this bug.

[Bug 19732] Re: resize takes a lot of time without user-feedback
@ rusivil, I filed the duplicate #571802 not knowing that this was a long standing issue. Quoting: This is one of those minor cosmetic bugs that I'm almost reluctant to report, but here goes. Using the iso-testing build of 04/29 and performing an auto-resize when I begin the actual resizing (step 4 of 7) and the progress gui pops up it almost immediately goes to 50% and it then remains there until the resizing is complete. However the resizing does complete successfully in the expected amount of time (5 to 10 minutes). During this the gui does also indicate please wait so I would think this is very minor, although I can imagine someone assuming that the partitioner is frozen if they get impatient. I would however think please wait means please wait IMO the length of time it takes for the resize operation is normal in comparison with using Gparted from a Live CD. Since 10.10 is getting a whole new ubiquity I think it would be reasonable to mark this won't fix, but that's only my opinion. -- resize takes a lot of time without user-feedback https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/19732 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
