Thought I'd begin listing some instances of OS and data loss related to this:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1647243 Two here, the second beginning with post #17: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1602137 Yet another: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1647050 I could go on and on, but I'd think by now I'd be trusted when I say, "there's been quite an up-tick in the number of side-by-side installs resulting in data/OS loss with the new ubiquity". I'm not making this up, and I'm not just being critical, I love Ubuntu and I want everyone's experience to be as good as mine has been :^) Of course there's no telling how many potential Ubuntu converts we lose when things like this happen, and new users that have this experience are only concerned about recovering their system, not filing bug reports :^( Since these new users don't file bugs I can only try to play devils advocate, which is why I performed additional testing and discovered bug 682429. Believe me, I'd rather be doing something else. It's much easier, and more my nature, to just be agreeable and never make waves. ATM I wonder if the Maverick release notes could be edited to somehow reflect this? I know people may not read them but the team has done an excellent job of presenting that option at the very beginning of using ubiquity. I sincerely hope I'm not just coming across as a pest, I just don't like telling someone that they've wiped out their data and/or Windows. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/655950 Title: Maverick ubiquity confusion w/ auto-resize option -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
