If you spent 1 second searching online about the anaconda redesign you'd easily find the stated and actual (not assumed by you and sadly incorrect) design goals. Why did you spend more time than that trolling this list, asserting things you didn't bother looking up? I don't understand. If you find yourself confused or upset by software, it's usually better to ask questions rather than make accusations and share your feelings on a development list. And it's usually a good idea to resort to asking a development list after doing some research and coming up empty after that. Here, since you seem to need some help, I'll rewrite your email for you: "I tried the new F18 anaconda UI and I have some questions about it. Would you mind helping me figure it out? "1. How do I use LVM over mdadm? (bz 854105) "2. I don't know how to use mdadm with disks of separate sizes. Is this possible? (bz 854105) "3. I don't know how to indicate which physical disk I want a given partition to be on. How do I do this? (bz 854105) "4. Is there a way to display the /dev path for the volumes in the custom partitioning UI? (bz 855646) "5. Is it possible to re-use an existing disk layout when installing Fedora? "6. Is it possible to view the model and serial number of disks in the new Anaconda UI? "7. Is it possible to review the size, position, and type of partitions in the UI? "8. Is it possible to create a new swap partition?" To your new email, I know some of the answers, but I feel like I've already spent enough time on you to answer them right now. Good luck. ~m _______________________________________________ Anaconda-devel-list mailing list Anaconda-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/anaconda-devel-list
