I'm pretty sure the interface I would find most useful that should also solve the problem of protecting disks is this: Go directly to a tree of disks and partitions and free space. The disks are all "locked". They probably have a lock icon next to them. You can do readonly operations on locked disks, but not clobber anything. The tree contains a comment field out to the side which can include things like the kernel installed on that partition, the label of that parition, etc. Or for disks the model and serial number. But kernels are not roots of trees (that is just utter nonsense). You have to unlock a disk first to be able to reformat or delete partitions and use free space. So now there are no extra screens to go through on a hope and a prayer and disks are protected unless you unlock them. -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
