However gparted can be launched on a specific drive
from http://gparted.sourceforge.net/display-doc.php?name=man-page&lang=C You can run *gparted* from a command line and specify one or more disk devices. For example, to start gparted with the devices /dev/sda and /dev/sdc you would use the following command: *gparted* /dev/sda /dev/sdc _______________________________ the installer is the change I was pointing to not a change in gparted if the "launch gparted" button was changed to respect the previous screen's choice of drive the installer would be more intuitive thanks On Oct 19, 2011 3:02 PM, "Jamie Fell" <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, gparted has nothing to do with Linux Mint.
