d-i: 'partman' partition overview suggestion for RAID
Hi everyone. I'd like to propose a tiny change to the way the partition setup
is displayed in partman-base. In the "(...) overview of currently configured
partitions and mount points":
* current *
==============================================
IDE1 master (HDA) - 8.0 GB WDC.............
#1 primary 8.0 GB ext2 /media/hda1
RAID0 device #0 - 10.0 GB Software RAID device
#1 10 GB ext2 /
==============================================
* proposed *
==============================================
IDE1 master (HDA) - 8.0 GB WDC.............
#1 primary 8.0 GB ext2 /media/hda1
RAID0 device #0 - 10.0 GB Software RAID device
#1 10 GB ext2 /
==============================================
Basically, extra space/tab is needed to keep the size, fs type and mount point
of RAID partitions aligned with these of other partitions. Alternatively,
instead of blank space, the partition type could be shown - such as "multi"
or "md" or just "RAID":
* alternate *
==============================================
IDE1 master (HDA) - 8.0 GB WDC.............
#1 primary 8.0 GB ext2 /media/hda1
RAID0 device #0 - 10.0 GB Software RAID device
#1 multi 10 GB ext2 /
==============================================
I know there are more important things to be dealt with but since it's
seemingly such a simple change, I thought it'd be worth a shot.
