[yast-devel] Observation from installing SLE-15 with new storage
Hi, just quick observations from my installation with leanos 15 with new storage. I am not sure if all issues are known, so if you mention which one is not known, I can try to report it with proper logs. 1. clean 20 GiB disk. Proposal is something that I do not like, so I use guided setup. Config is trivial XFS for root and no separate home -> result is 10 GiB for /, 2GiB swap and 1MiB BIOS Boot, so almost 8GiB is unsed. If I choose btrfs for / it works fine. 2. main screen missing Edit/Delete/Add buttons, so I need at first pick it from tree ( quite annoying in ncurses ) 3. manuall remove all partitions, then -> Add -> Custom size 1 MiB -> RaW Volume -> Bios Boot Partition ---> It creates 20 GiB Bios Boot partition! 4. resize of partition not possible Result now is that I cannot configure disk how I want due to combination of this bugs ( ideally BIOS Boot + largest possible root without btrfs ).

Known and expected. It will be different as soon as all products adapt to the new control.xml specification. For more details (too many details, I would say) check https://github.com/yast/yast-storage-ng/blob/master/doc/old_and_new_proposal...
2. main screen missing Edit/Delete/Add buttons, so I need at first pick it from tree ( quite annoying in ncurses )
3. manuall remove all partitions, then -> Add -> Custom size 1 MiB -> RaW Volume -> Bios Boot Partition ---> It creates 20 GiB Bios Boot partition!

4. resize of partition not possible
Result now is that I cannot configure disk how I want due to combination of this bugs ( ideally BIOS Boot + largest possible root without btrfs ).
Yes, resizing is still not there in the expert partitioner. Known, of course. Cheers. -- Ancor González Sosa YaST Team at SUSE Linux GmbH -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: yast-devel+owner@opensuse.org

Yes, these buttons are still missing. We should add them.
3. manuall remove all partitions, then -> Add -> Custom size 1 MiB -> RaW Volume -> Bios Boot Partition ---> It creates 20 GiB Bios Boot partition!

I have a respective PBI in the backlog already.
3. manuall remove all partitions, then -> Add -> Custom size 1 MiB -> RaW Volume -> Bios Boot Partition ---> It creates 20 GiB Bios Boot partition!

PBI for this is also already prepared.
