@ Colin Watson, Just following up on this. That does look better, we're basically back to what Maverick showed on that screen, and hopefully that will also help with the "window too large for the screen" bugs I've seen filed regarding netbooks and such.
But I have what may or may not be a silly suggestion. I realize we can't go back to what we had pre-Maverick, but ATM we still only show about 3 1/2 lines of devices for installation and I wonder if we could change something else to allow displaying at least 5 lines of devices. I rather imagine that asking to remove the nearly useless graphic bar in that step would require intense debate with the design team, but how about reducing the font of "Allocate drive space"? Perhaps a simpler approach, one I'd hope wouldn't require much debate between teams, is the redundancy of these two lines of text: Boot loader (dark, bold font) Device for boot loader installation: (less prominent font) If we could eliminate the first line "Boot loader" and then set a bold font in the second, while maintaining the same window size, could that increase the number of devices displayed to at least 5? I know none of this is easy for you and Evan. I truly hope you know that I'm only trying to ensure that everyones experience with Ubuntu is as great as mine has been since Gutsy :^) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/726740 Title: Manual Partition in Ubiquity difficult to use due to Boot Loader text -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
