Description Telsa Gwynne 2002-08-20 17:03:34 UTC 
Description of Problem:

GUI install of null. Partitioning screen:
selected "all partitions" and "review".
hit "next"
pop up appears, warning I am about to nuke data.

"You have selected to remove all partitions (ALL DATA).."

You don't "select to [verb]".
You select a thing or a range of things. Or you "choose to [verb]"

"You have chosen to remove" or "You have opted to removed" or
"You have selected the removal of all partitions (ALL DATA)..."
would be better.

Sorry if this is petty (or UK-specific)...

Comment 3 Jeremy Katz 2006-04-24 17:59:26 UTC 
Mass-closing lots of old bugs which are in MODIFIED (and thus presumed to be
fixed).  If any of these are still a problem, please reopen or file a new bug
against the release which they're occurring in so they can be properly tracked.
