Worse still, when I installed Karmic alpha 4 just now, it told me that /home would be formatted when I explicitly didn't check the 'format' button. I suspect this "Ready for Installation" screen is sloppily written when it comes to the partition format warning, and doesn't check to see whether the partition is actually going to be formatted. (Either that, or the earlier screen is marking partitions for formatting when the user didn't ask for it, which would be worse.)
I played it safe and didn't even have the installer mount /home! This part at least should be fixed for Karmic. -- Obscure scary warning in installer. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/57787 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
