Colin, Thank you for the reply and your efforts on this. As I can't add to the code side I would be happy to help with testing to look for problems in this area with feisty herd. If you could give me any suggestions on testing or point me to resources regarding such (e.g. guidelines) I would appreciate it.
I understand your decision to rely on qtparted. I'd like to ask that in the future a halting function or warning be added to the process in any case where there is a known possibility for something as serious as eating data due to a known bug - just a dialog box would be fine, or even just a bit of text. [I'm not sure from your reply if you knew of the possibility of this happening.] Of course, it was silly of me to work without proper backups, but users are routinely unreasonable in their reliance on things being error-free and it could potentially save a lot of frustration. Thanks again, and please keep up the great work - while this one problem bothered me greatly I am extremely pleased with Kubuntu, Hugh -- manual partitioning fails in numerous fatal ways https://launchpad.net/bugs/84473 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
