Is it possible, to somehow merge these examples?
Definitely ... for instance by a Wizard-like dialogs.
It's not possible to have one-big-superb dialog that would fit all needs and that would be *additionally* understandable for the first sight. No it would not, these things allways need *extra* attention...
Example with several systems installed:
--- Step One ---
Installation program has found these systems on your hard disk(s):
* System AAA * System BBB
Would you like to
( ) Upgrade system [ System AAA v ] ( ) Install openSUSE over [ System AAA v ] (x) Shrink some disk partitions to install openSUSE
----------------
--- Step Two ---
You have selected option to shrink some partitions to make enough space for new openSUSE installation.
Select partition(s) you would like to shrink:
+------+--------------+----------------+------------+------------+ | Sel. | Partition | Used by system | Total size | Free space | +------+--------------+----------------+------------+------------+ | [ ] | /dev/? | System AAA | 20.1 GB | 5.2 GB | | [x] | /dev/? | System BBB | 115.3 GB | 26.8 GB | | [ ] | ... | ... | ... | ... | +------+--------------+----------------+------------+------------+
----------------
looks sane enough.. ;)
Additionally, some people might also want partitioner to propose which partition should be shrunk ...
BTW: there is no such YCP widget that would allow check-box in column in table :) ;) But we are just thinking about possible solutions in general, aren't we?
Bye Lukas
About solutions, yes. Personaly i would not think about letting the partitioner choose for me which partition should be shrunk, as i already had in mind where to put the newly install. What i see in your example is that the partitioner not only *knows* which os are on the drives, but also demonstrates that, by calling them by their name, now that is nice! -- Enjoy your time around, Oddball (Now or never...)
