ubuntu-desktop-installer: Where can partition sizes be reset on the fly during the install?
RE:
Ubuntu 23.10 Desktop Edition Flutter installer-- https:/
Ubuntu Forums thread: https:/
<<This is a technical question>>
Background:
Previous to the new Flutter Installer for 23.04, Desktop Installers up through Ubuntu 22.10 used 'partman' as the partitioner. There is a point in the installation, when you have selected the type of default/canned install, where you select Erase All and Install Ubuntu to select an installation script: Nothing (ext4); Advanced option: whole disk LVM, LVM with Encryption, Experimental ZFS...
At that point, if you pressed <Alt><F2> and opened gnome-terminal, you could ope and edit the files kept for the partitioner in folder /usr/lib/partman, such as changing the sizes, mount options, etc.
I already am part of a bug on the new installer, in that the new partitioner is not file manager / filesystem aware for LVM, LUKS, BTRFS, ZFS, etc. But that is another story...
What is the new partitioner used in the new Flutter installer?
Where does it store it's options from Installation panel #7, "Ready To Install", for the partitioning information, so that it can be modified during the install, to alter that part of the script?
I see that in /var/lib/
