** Description changed: [Impact] parted reports NVMe devices as "Unknown", which propagates up to d-i: - ┌────────────────────────┤ [!!] Partition disks ├─────────────────────────┐ - │ │ - │ Note that all data on the disk you select will be erased, but not │ - │ before you have confirmed that you really want to make the changes. │ - │ │ - │ Select disk to partition: │ - │ │ - │ /dev/nvme0n1 - 450.1 GB Unknown │ - │ SCSI1 (0,0,0) (sdi) - 240.1 GB ATA INTEL SSDSC2BB24 │ - │ SCSI3 (0,0,0) (sdj) - 800.2 GB ATA SDLFOCAM-800G-1H │ - │ │ - │ <Go Back> │ - │ │ - └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ + ┌────────────────────────┤ [!!] Partition disks ├─────────────────────────┐ + │ │ + │ Note that all data on the disk you select will be erased, but not │ + │ before you have confirmed that you really want to make the changes. │ + │ │ + │ Select disk to partition: │ + │ │ + │ /dev/nvme0n1 - 450.1 GB Unknown │ + │ SCSI1 (0,0,0) (sdi) - 240.1 GB ATA INTEL SSDSC2BB24 │ + │ SCSI3 (0,0,0) (sdj) - 800.2 GB ATA SDLFOCAM-800G-1H │ + │ │ + │ <Go Back> │ + │ │ + └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ + + While d-i works fine with this device as-is, the "Unknown" string is a + source of consternation with some users who aren't sure if NVMe is + supported. [Test Case] Current: $ sudo parted -s /dev/nvme0n1 p Model: Unknown Disk /dev/nvme0n1: 512GB [...] Expected: $ sudo parted -s /dev/nvme0n1 p Model: NVMe Device (nvme) Disk /dev/nvme0n1: 512GB [...] [Regression Risk] There maybe user code out there relying on the existing "Unknown" output.
