Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubiquity
Reproduction steps:
1. In a virtual machine, create a new 6 GB disk.
2. Partition the drive so it contains a 256 MiB fat32 partition on sda3, a 512
MiB swap partition on /dev/sda2, and the remainder (about 5400 MiB) as ext3 on
/dev/sda1. All partitions were primary partitions. In my case, I had an older
Ubuntu installation on /dev/sda1.
3. Reboot into the 8.10 beta live CD.
4. Start the installer, click Next until the partitioning screen shows up.
5. Observe the proposed guided partitioning scheme.
Expected: The partitioner proposes a hard drive arrangement that is physically
possible.
Actual: "How do you want to partition the disk? Before (/dev/sda1=88%,
/dev/sda2=7%, /dev/sda3=3%), After (/dev/sda1=88%, /dev/sda2=7%, /dev/sda3=41%,
Ubuntu 8.10 -37%)"
The graphic showing the partition distribution is the same for both
before and after.
** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
