Je ne suis pas d'accord. The complaint was completely justified. The default should never be to make a dramatic change, unless this is essential. The default should always be to leave things as they are, as far as possible. But even if you don't accept that, and also believe users should read what looks like a 100-page document before installing (in general, the people who write Fedora installation manuals are somewhat deficient in common sense, believing that the more information given the better), I don't actually see in the manuals you refer to any statement of how to avoid automatic re-partitions. Both show the same screen shot, and then say ---------------------- Figure 9.17. Disk Partitioning Setup On this screen you can choose to create the default partition layout automatically, or choose to partition storage devices manually to create a custom layout. ---------------------- But I don't see anything on the screen shot as shown offering this choice. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
