partman-lvm testing/review wanted
Hi all,
in the last few days I've rewritten much of the functionality in
partman-lvm by merging the lvm functionality in lvmcfg and
partman-auto-lvm.
It has gained a number of new features, and has dropped the dependency
on lvmcfg in the process.
Noteworthy changes:
o Displays overview of current configuration at main LVM menu with the
option of a detailed overview
o Flattened menu hierarchy
o Dynamic menus so that only choices which are currently possible are
displayed (you must for example setup a LVM PV before the LVM
configuration option appears in the partman main window)
o Fully translatable user interface (lvmcfg had some hardcoded strings)
o Misc bugfixes
The updated partman-lvm and partman-auto-lvm packages are in
/people/alphix-guest in the SVN repo, you're going to need both if you
want to do some testing.
The only TODO on my list is to modify partman-auto-lvm to use the
generic functions provided by the lvm_tools.sh script provided by
partman-lvm, so I was hoping that someone could test and/or review the
updated packages and see if anything breaks (I'm not able to break it
myself anymore).
Regards,
David
