Package: debian-installer Severity: wishlist In cases where d-i creates partition tables or disk labels, it should do so using 4k boundaries, as most new disks use 4k physical sectors. Misaligning the filesystem would result in 50 % degraded drive performance in those case. Essentially, instead of 63, put the first partition at block 64. Or just leave 1M free before the first partition, which is a safe bet for the future. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_NZ, LC_CTYPE=en_NZ.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- .''`. martin f. krafft <madduck@d.o> Related projects: : :' : proud Debian developer http://debiansystem.info `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck http://vcs-pkg.org `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems
