Hello,

some days ago, I did a Tumbleweed installation. One noticable change (since my last fresh install ~2 years ago) was that the installation summary screen (the screen before the installation starts to modify the harddisk, installs packages etc.) does no longer show partitioning changes.

OTOH, there's now a separate summary screen listing partitioning changes directly after the partitioning step, so it's "only" moved, not lost.

Was that an intentional change or an oversight while switching to storage-ng?

(Personally, I'd prefer to have the partitioning summary in the final summary screen so that I can double-check which partitions get deleted before hitting the "go!" button.)

Regards,

Christian Boltz

Hi Christian, is it intentional change and I believe it is older then 2 years and definitively older then storage-ng. This summary screen still exists, but we do not show it anymore. I think it was done as part of cleaning of summary screen as it already contain quite a lot stuff and decision was to use only single tab summary ( previously there was two tabs ). I think Kubic uses partitioning as part of summary, so it is really product specific decision that can be tuned by project manager in control.xml for product.

Hi Christian, is it intentional change and I believe it is older then 2 years and definitively older then storage-ng. Time flies, it was 5 years ago. See

Either time flies, or I didn't care enough about the partitioning two years ago - back then, it was a new laptop, so there was no data to damage. This time I re-installed the laptop (to finally get the new btrfs layout), therefore I cared more to not destroy the data partition ;-)

Thanks for explaining all these details! I still think partitioning is important enough to have it in the summary screen (in all products), but if I'm the only one who noticed this in the last 5 years, feel free to ignore me ;-) Regards, Christian Boltz -- Abgesehen davon, scheint in der heutigen Zeit jeder davon auszugehen, dass die Windowsbedienung jedem schon bei der Geburt mitgegeben wurde und jeder der Linux nutzt automatisch ein komplizierten Umsteigevor- gang vor sich hat.
