Title:
unintended partition resize
Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
When trying to install trusty beta 1 to an existing file system,
clicking the partition pops up a little window that allows me to say
that I want to use it as ext4 (which the filesystem already was), and
to mount it as /.
However, that same popup also display a new size in MB. I never
changed it, however it shows a number that 1 higher than what is
listed in the partitions overview. Proceeding anyway, ubiquity warns
me that it will have to resize the partition. It does that even if I
back out, and change the size to exactly what is listed in the
overview. I've tried this a few times, but this always seems to
trigger the resize.
Interestingly, when I then proceed to click 'revert' in the partitions
overview, and than set the mount point for the partition again, it
still shows the wrong size (+1 MB as compared to the partition
overview listing), however I can normally proceed without ubiquity
asking me about resizing. So that's a work-around, at least...
