Bug ID: 502243
Summary: Operation details do not show the full command
Classification: Applications
Product: partitionmanager
Version: 24.12.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: andr...@stikonas.eu
Reporter: feder...@kircheis.it
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When doing an operation, it is possible to show additional details. KDE
Partition manager will also show the command one can use on the command line;
for example (only commands copied out from the details)
----
wipefs --all /dev/sdc1
sfdisk --force --delete /dev/sdc 1
sfdisk --force --append /dev/sdc
mkfs.fat -F32 -I -v /dev/sdc1
sfdisk --part-type /dev/sdc 1 c
fatlabel /dev/sdc1 label
fsck.fat -a -w -v /dev/sdc1
umount /dev/sdc1
----
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select drive
2. delete partitions
3. create new fat32 partition
4. apply operations
5. Click on "Details"
OBSERVED RESULT
The detail windows does not show always show the correct command
EXPECTED RESULT
I would expect that typing the shown commands would lead to the same outcome.
Instead typing (for example) "sfdisk --force --append /dev/sdc" starts "sfdisk"
in interactive mode.
If one tries to start it in non-interactive mode, for example with ": | sfdisk
--force --append /dev/sdc", then no changes are made to the disk, and the
subsequent command fails.
In this case (one partition on one drive), the "workaround is to use "echo ','
| sfdisk --force --append /dev/sdc", but for more complex setups (multiple
partitions), it would be better if the details match what one has to actually
type.
