<div dir="ltr">Yes... Today, a little knowledge about partitions is required... But at least, some warning should be displayed before applying modifications! I guess a graph showing how the partitions will look like after modifications might help users to understand what is being done. Something similar to the graph presented before, at choosing step...

I had two partitions when I chose this. One with files I wanted to keep and the other being the windows 7 partition. When I chose to remove windows I assumed it would be placed on my C drive and not my other one. But what actually ended up happening was all my partitions merged into one deleting everything. Now I only have Ubuntu on my drive. I need help retrieving my files please!' -o- This is what I have been telling, when describing the One Button Installer '...

There are several threads at the Ubuntu Forums describing installations, where a previous system has been overwritten by mistake. ...' It is really too bad, and something that should be improved in 14.04 Best regards Nio -- Lubuntu-users mailing list <a href="mailto:Lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com">Lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users</a> </blockquote></div> </div></div>
