This screwed me over, I really wish I would have looked it up prior to using the option.
I had three partitions all set and ready to go. One was my existing NTFS partition with Windows 7 on it. Another was my Ubuntu 10.10 32 bit partition. Lastly I had a third partition formatted as ext4, I had that partition selected and chose to Use Entire Partition. The damn installer took the entire hard drive for the new Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit install. Claiming that what I wanted to do was split partitions or something is ridiculous, I had 3 distinct partitions - each formatted completely different (NTFS, ext3, ext4) and the thing used the entire disk. If I had wanted to use the entire disk, I would have chose that option. VERY misleading and aggravating. The 10.04 installer worked perfect to allow me to dual boot Windows 7 and Ubuntu 10.04 while the 10.10 installer just screwed me over and erased all my data. -- Maverick ubiquity confusion w/ auto-resize option https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/655950 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
