[Bug 1591288] Re: Improvement of GUI installation dialog

[Paul White]

We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all
reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago
and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.

Do you still see problems related to the ones that you reported when
using a currently supported version of Xubuntu? Please let us know if
you do otherwise this report can be left to expire in approximately 60
days time.

Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.

Title:
  Improvement of GUI installation dialog

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I perform recently xubuntu 16.04 installation. I wanted to reuse
  already existing partitions and LVM thus I used 'advance method'. The
  main point in that kind of installation is list of drives/partitions
  where you can select which mount point will use given partitions.

  This dialog is very unfriendly:
  - it should be resizeable (especially maximize) as it contains many information and you need to many time to scroll,
  - scrolling works somehow poor,
  - I could not change already existing LVM (for example resize or delete or create new).
  - when I choose already existing ext4 partition then GUI forces formatting of that partition. But what if I don't want to format? Maybe even I want to retain data that is on that partition.
