[Bug 1218702] Re: ubiquity resizes partition even when not asked to.
but this happens in 14.04, 14.04.01 LTS also... it s really annoying to have to repair the partition after ubuntu installation.. it pushes the end of the partition to the right over an extended partition and resize it.. this is not normal behavior.. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1218702 Title: ubiquity resizes partition even when not asked to.

[Bug 1218702] Re: ubiquity resizes partition even when not asked to.
i have a problem related to this bug too.. most likely after the ubuntu partition i have an extended partition which contains two logical partitions.. each logical partition has an 2048 free space in front of it ubuntu not only that resizes the partition in which it must install... but its moving the begining of the extended partition by 2046 to the right... (maybe he doesnt read the extended partition right, ...).. i dont think this is a good ideea and i have to manually repair that after ubuntu instalation... baybe i m not clear enought, i could upload some pictures if its needed... something like: 2048 | sda1 | sda2 - swap | sda3 - ext4 | sda4 - extended | extended looks like: 2048 | sda1 | sda2 - swap | sda3 - ext4 | 2048free| sda5-logical | 2048free| sda6-logical | so it pushes sda3 to the right over extended sda 4 --- and sda 4 2046 to the right... ty -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1218702 Title: ubiquity resizes partition even when not asked to.

[Bug 1218702] Re: ubiquity resizes partition even when not asked to.
** Description changed: ** Description changed: Choose Something else at install options, select a partition change the FS to ext4, select format, set partition to be /. Do not change the size size gets changed anyway, ( I lost 8M) I think what is happening is that ubuiquity reads the partition size and displays it in Mb. It is rounded or truncated to make it fit the display. the user doesn't change it, but the size never was the same as the original partition and so the partition gets resized. What should happen is that if the given size is the same as before and after no resize should happen. That is ubiquity should compare what the user enters with a recalc for display rather than comparing with the actual size to determine if the size is actually changed.
