Bug#274614: grub-installer should prefill likely partition
Package: grub-installer
Severity: wishlist
Version: d-i pre-rc2
During an install of d-i pre-rc2, I installed using only one
partition:
/ /dev/hda2
When prompted, I chose not to install to the MBR. The next screen,
asking what parition I wished to install GRUB to, had an empty text
field. In this case /dev/hda2 should have been the default.
In general, when the user chooses not to install to the MBR, it should
always be possible to suggest a reasonable default, either the
partition for / or for /boot.
