Thanks.
Unfortunately I can not do this right now. Here is a list of my changes in partman since rc1: 1. The conversion long-number -> human-string is changed to round correctly numbers so 1990MB is shown as 2.0GB rather than as 1.9GB 2. Do not show the dialog "Write changes?" when the partition table is not changed, no partition is to be formatted and partman has formatted (in a previous run) at least one partition. If there are not changes and no partition has already been formatted then show the dialog "No changes! Really continue?". Joey did some additional changes here 3. Several changes regarding the support of dvh disk labels (SGI). Needs testing! (but partman is not default on SGI anyway) 4. Some changes in the recipes of partman-auto, Joey undid the changes regarding mount options 5. Do not sort the available file systems alphabetically so that again Ext3 is default instead of Ext2 6. Autoset "noatime" and "quiet" mount options for new partitions, Joey undid this 7. For most file systems the dialog "Select mount point" is changed 8. For all file systems the dialog "Select mount options" is changed. In rc1 there was the following bug - if the user selects for example "notail" mount option with ReiserFS and then changes ReiserFS to Ext3 the "notail" mount option is still active despite that Ext3 doesn't support "notail" 9. On Ext2/3 allow the user to specify the percentage reserved space for superuser and the number of inodes 7 and 8 affect all partman-file_system packages so all they have to be checked.
