UI review: unhelpful filesystem choices
Last modified: 2009-05-01 02:32:47 UTC
from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=489514 I'm trying to run n-gdu on a blank DVD+R, and it is offering me a bunch of filesystem choices, among them some questionable ones, like swap or empty. Why would anybody want to do that ?! I don't think those choices are useful at all in a simple formatting utility. Also, I think we should preselect the most useful choice of filesystem for a given type of medium. It might be even better to relegate explicit filesystem choice to an "advanced" section and just have two simple choices, like (*) Format for data exchange with other operating systems ( ) Use native Linux filesystem
Fixed in the merged version.
