I see that lp:~flimm/usb-creator/warn-before-format was added as a fix to this bug.
Is this a temporary fix or the final solution? I hope that it is temporary since there is no other behavior in Ubuntu that reformats an entire drive, wiping out all partitions at once. If this is the final solution I suggest changing the installation CD's to not install this product by default, but instead make it available through synaptic. -- Should warn that formatting will erase the entire contents of the device (all partitions). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/446891 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
