Re: Adding HDD software to default programs

 

I agree with you: gparted, hidden in a menu, would Be the Best Choice  .

Best regards,

Windows XP also has built-in utilities like gparted, but way more primitive and thus with less capabilities. Still, I've never heard of anyone accidentally doing damage to his partition on windows because of that, as the tool is hidden somewhere in the control panel - same as I belive gparted would be hidden in settings/ administration/whatever menu, so I see no danger in it. And I see no point in putting there any less-powerful program, as I bet no one will use it (waste of space and unnecessary load on the image), but download gparted from repositories - because anyone who will look for such utility will be aware enough to do that.

I think its not that important if the program is simple. The people who want to format a Partition of their hdd should get gparted cause with that they have all possibilities. And people who don't Know what they are doing shouldnt use the program, otherwise they would just do sth wrong and erase some data or so. But how to keep These users away from the program? We all know that a simple warning- sign would Be ignored. I think if the program looks complicated, many People just Close the window. Of course this is not the best thing, but with gparted we would give the users who know what they do a great hddtool, and we could also keep the others from causing any damage on their data.
So what do you think?

Best regards,
Jo
