Public bug reported:
I was installing Feisty on a Windows XP computer. The objective was to
create a dual-boot system. I used the Feisty CD, and got to the point
where there were three options (Guided partition- Format entire drive;
Guided Partition- Use largest continuous space; and Manual). I chose
manual, because I wanted to resize the Windows partition and install
Ubuntu in the new free space. However, the next window did not give me
the option to resize the partition. At the time, it did not occur to me
to use GParted seperately because my last install was with Breezy
Badger, where the live cd is seperate from the install CD. So, all I'm
asking is that for the next release, a reminder be put up on one of
those steps, along the lines of, "To resize a partition, use the GParted
tool at System>Administration>GParted". That way, no one would get
confused as I was during that step. Thank you.
