Package: partconf Severity: important File: partconf Just tried d-i using today's (or yesterday's) netinst ISO images: $ lang=C TZ=UTC ls -lh sarge-i386-netinst.iso -rw-r--r-- 1 roland roland 115M 2003-10-04 22:16 sarge-i386-netinst.iso
When at the partconf stage, I get the following behaviour: Step 1: listing of available partitions This works okay, I see all partitions I have. I select partition #11 on IDE disk 1 (which I'll call hda11 for the sake of brevity), then "Continue". Step 2: selection of mkfs to use This step doesn't say which partition it wants to operate on. I select ext3. Step 3: selection of mount point This step asks me for a mount point, but it says it's for hda1. I bravely select "/" nevertheless. Back to step 1: listing of available partitions I now see the list of partitions I have. hda1 is displayed as "format as ext3 then mount on /". hda11 is displayed as "leave as is". Since hda1 to hda10 are the partitions where my real setup lives, I chickened out and didn't try to go any further. I believe d-i would have gladly erased/reformatted my hda1 and installed stuff on it.
