[Bug 458010] New: partitioner: missing swap warning -- reverse the question
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=458010 Summary: partitioner: missing swap warning -- reverse the question Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bluedzins@wp.pl QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- It would be good from usability POV to keep all questions in the same "order" -- so positive answers would mean continuing the installation (or opposite). Currently in partitioner to continue, you have to answer no, in passwords dialog (three question) to continue you have to answer yes. Since it is a bit more sane yes=continue, I suggest to change the question in partitioner. Partitioner -> delete all partitions -> create one root partition -> accept -> "there is no swap.... do you want to change it? [yes] / [no]". So, the question should be: do you want to keep it [ yes ] / [ no ] So then yes would mean continue with installation. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

In other words, instead of 'Do you want to change X?', it now mostly reads 'Do you really want to use X?' (where X can be anything - no swap partition, too small boot partition, unformatted partition ... etc.) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
