Try to change the default minimum size of / partition for partman
Hello Debian team,
I am Patrick the main developer of Emmabuntüs GNU/Linux distribution :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emmabunt%C3%BCs, and I developed a new
version of Emmabuntüs based of Debian Jessie :
http://emmabuntus.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/June_20_2016_the_new_Emmabuntus_DE_is_standing_up
On this version when we use the partition "Guided - use entire disk",
and after selection "Separate /home Partition", the partitioner make
these partitions :
#1 primary 10 GB ext 4 /
#5 logical 2,9 GB swap
#6 logical 67,2 GB ext4 /home
The problem is the Emmabuntüs ISO is very big and the size of ISO is 3,9
GB and the system when is install take 9,5 GB on a partition of 10 GB.
I try to modify the schema partition on preseed file because I not find
the name of recipe files for control partman-auto :
http://ftp.dc.volia.com/pub/debian/preseed/partman-auto-recipe.txt
I put this line on my preseed file to change the size of / :
d-i partman-auto/expert_recipe string partman-auto/text/home_scheme ::
10000 15000 30000 ext4 $primary{ } $bootable{ } method{ format } format{
} use_filesystem{ } \
filesystem{ ext4 } mountpoint{ / } . 512 1024 300% linux-swap method{
swap } format{ } . 5000 10000 1000000000 ext4 method{ format } format{ }
use_filesystem{ } \
filesystem{ ext4 } mountpoint{ /home } .
This line work but with this line, the "Separate /home Partition" menu
disappear, and the user don't have the three mode for "Guided - use
entire disk" partitioning.
My question is : It is possible to change the default minimum size of /
partition for partman-auto, and what the method to change this size ?
Thank for your help.
Best regards,
Patrick
