Description of Problem: cannot select whether ext2 or ext3 partition is being defined ... only ext3. How Reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. do install 2. select fdisk partitioning 3. Actual Results: Expected Results: Additional Information:
Please post more details - is this a new or a pre-existing partition you were editting?
The Summary line is more or less correct (is == if) but the inner text is not. If fdisk is used to define a new partition and the the next panel is selected, the new partition does not have a "filetype". If you try to edit that partition, a popup message is generate: "You cannot edit partitions without a filetype". In that panel, if you delete and then "reallocate" the partition, you can set the filetype but you cannot edit an existing partition and set/change the filetype. I suspect this has something to do with looking into a partition to see if the "83" partition is ext3.
