Hi again Israel,
I tested the fullscreen option after testing the standard option for the
OBI, and there were zenity menus. Now I realize that running the
standard option alters the fullscreen option, I have to delete ~/usezenity.
Then it looks better. The selected partitions are shown and partitions
can be selected like before. I'm talking about information shown in the
help file 'README.pdf' (found via 'Help to install to disk' -- 'Detailed
help') on page 15, and the option to select partitions shown on pages 16
and 17 (now slightly modified, but still working in the dialog version).
-o-
But the bootloader problem is still bigger than it used to be. If you
want to install to the first drive /dev/sda, I suggest, that you also
provide a menu, where the user can select another target device for the
bootloader. I think that also other people would like to install the
bootloader into the same drive as the root partition (and the swap) are
installed into.
Best regards
Nio
