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.

--- Comment #2 from Katarina Machalkova kmachalkova@novell.com 2009-02-11 10:15:40 MST --- The questions - all I was able to find, maybe some more will surface in the future - are reversed now (for 11.2) so that answering 'yes' will mean continuing in the installation/configuration.
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.)
