[PATCH] (master) UI rewrite

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello list.

Sorry for the very very very very long patch set. :)  IMO each patch is
pretty well commented and speaks for itself.  I tried to separate the
patches as much as I could.

I would like to comment on the method I used to find out if there was
space left in the system partitions.  I basically wanted to know if
there was some space in the partition after allocation but before
growing.  I'm not to proud of the way it is done but it gets the job done.
With that said, I would be ok with NOT including the related patches and
assuming we have free space in the partitions.  In the case we would
error out after the user tries to create a partition.

Moreover, I think we should make the autopartitioning optional.  Right
now we are reorganizing everything every time the user does something.
IMO, it would be much better to give the user a little bit more of
responsibility and let him/her be more specific as to the size and
location of the partitions.  But thats a battle for another time, I
guess.

I have been testing this against master and there are still 2 issues
that are left to be addressed.  IMO, these are minor issues that will
probably get ironed out soonish.

1. The direct "create LV" does not work yet.  One has to go through the
VG screen
2. After an action the bar view gets erased and is blank until one
clicks as device.

As suggested by clumens, I'll make some videos about the enhancements
that were created and post them shortly.

Regards.
