However, if you disagree with *any* setting, there is no easy way to just modify the size distribution of the partitions. i.e. I'd like to type "A", then move the cursor to the var line and type "S128M" or some such to change the size to 32Mb. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: Please make sure we can do this in son-of-sysinstall >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
