I do not understand also but it is the reality. Is forgotten somewhere an argument such "-y" ? I precise that the problem is not that I loss my files in the partition even some packages know how to preserve, upgrade or include them. The warnings of d-i or partman are well understandable. The real bug for me is that, being not forbidden on an old installation, the installation freezes, waiting infinitively an answer from the user that he can not do ! So I think that the bug is from d-i. You must choose : Or give the user the ability to answer to the questions, or let dpkg/apt-get to reconfigure with the defaults settings of the packages such "-y" as parameters of apt-get. I do not think that partman is relevant. Forbidden an upgrade of an old installation is not a good choice for me. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
