[Bug 1069378] Re: specify sizes in human readable format (e.g., 1K 234M 2G)

[melchiaros]

Sorry Manuel,
but we use not more the manual reporting, whenever it could be done with apport.

Please use in futhur :

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs

Anyway, at minimum please add the tag for the Ubuntu version you are
on(e.g quantal or  precise). This will give the information on what
version of the installation system you are talking on.

You should also run:

apport-collect 1069378

(please install the missing libraries for this action- > see console
output).


Affter this please set the status of the report back to new.

Title:
  specify sizes in human readable format (e.g., 1K 234M 2G)

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When doing manual partitioning, partition sizes are specified in MB
  (the text says so). It would be far clearer if after the number there
  was a selection button where one could specify the units (Megabytes,
  Gigabytes, Terabytes etc).

  That is, instead of:

  New partition size in megabytes (100000 bytes): 10

  it would say:

  New partition size: 10 [Megabytes>]

  and the [Megabytes>] is clickable.
