Your example actually shows your preferences, but frankly, installation isn't that simple.
Could the installer ask the user what strategy he prefers, and then make the proposals? It would allow the proposal module to use different algorithms. Or once the proposal is made, a button for "think again", perhaps allowing the user to mark partitions as untouchable or preferred or free.
And that's also why I'd rather like to see a lot of different use-cases and proposals. Then we could merge them into a sequence of wizard dialogs where you could select from listed options according to your preferences.
Recently you (I mean, Novell) did a survey on hard disk configuration. Wouldn't it be more useful to give us a script to run locally (as user), that collects that info into a text file which we can then email to you? Then you would not have absurd results like a large percent saying they don't have a root partition. Maybe such a survey could be useful to you in order to design the install strategy :-? - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
