Description

Same can be said for root/home partitions, -lvm should not be intimating that
they are currently not in use, and hence encouraging an admin to intialize them
for lvm use.
1. The unitialized partitions list should list only those marked as partition
type Linux LVM =0x8e
2. An enhanced GUI could have a tree branch called: non-lvm partitions, and
boot/swap/root/ntfs/vfat/home would be listed there. While it would be nice to
show some details of these {size and mount point}, at least the -lvm util could
list the partition names.
Maybe we can get this fixed for F9? Putting on F9Target. Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Moved to Fedora rawhide as there is still this problem. System-config-lvm has entered maintainance-only mode and whole package will be deprecated soon. We do not plan active development, only bugfixing. Solution 1) , as proposed in comment 1, is not acceptable as it will add new restrictions for PV and thus some of the devices won't be shown Solution 2) is acceptable but needs active development. |
