** Summary changed: - Ubiquity gives no help when already have four primary partitions defined + Manual partitioner gives no help when already have four primary partitions defined
** Description changed: - Binary package hint: ubiquity - When I install Feisty and I choose to do Manual partitioning, there is nothing that Ubiquity does to tells me why I cannot add a new partition in the free space. I already have four primary partitions defined so of course I cannot add another partition. However, unless I already knew there is a limit of four primary/extended partitions, I would think that the "Prepare partitions" was broken because when you double-click on the "free space", nothing happens. How to recreate: Launch Feisty LiveCD install, In "Prepare Disk Space" step, select Manual partitioning. Add partitions until there are four primary partitions defined, leaving some "free space" yet. Double-click on the "free space". Instead of getting the "Create partition" dialog box, nothing happens. Expected behavior: If I try to add a fifth partition, maybe display an error message to tell me that there is a limit of four primary partitions, and that to get more partitions I can go with three primary partitions and then add logical partitions from there?
