I understand this being marked as "milestone beta" and I'm sure that's a challenge. I do appreciate the complexity of dealing with this issue.
With Alpha 2 iso-testing coming up I see no need to re-report this bug but given the fact that I've had no feedback from either Evan or Colin I'm curious what the status is regarding bug 652852 ? Have any redesign decisions been made? Noobs want an easy and safe installation process. It appears we've done quite well not offering any insane options if four primary partitions already exist, so I think that should stop most noobs from proceeding w/o advice. OTOH, if three or less primary partitions exist, it is so easy to resize an existing Win partition and then choose "Use the largest continuous free space" it's almost a "no-brainer". Is there any chance of that being included in this bug-fix? Or should I continue filing reports regarding the lack of that option? I often feel that I'm thrashing about with no hope of surviving and I really hate having to type replies like I did here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1679051 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/655950 Title: Maverick ubiquity confusion w/ auto-resize option results in OS and data loss -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
