I wonder if this really ought to be a hook, or if partman-auto should just behave differently as standard? After all, in general if automation fails we stop and present a dialog. Adding a hook for this seems like overengineering; if the expert recipe fails, an error dialog seems appropriate in general. If you want to also prevent use of the standard recipes (since it does still seem natural for partman-auto to fall back to them), you could simply remove them; is this possible for you? -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@debian.org] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
