From b6afa9270c51ab22c544a7b8149e86188f711605 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: rafaelreis-r <57492577+rafaelreis-r@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Thu, 7 Nov 2019 11:54:11 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] Update custom-install.md 1 - Inform the user how to return to installation @ step 8; 2 - Clarify the need to choose a FS and format prior to assigning the mount points (option is greyed out until you do). @ step 9 3 - Guide the user on navigating the quirky behaviour of Anaconda on that part - You have to first check the box, then choose FS, then enter mount point, from bottom to top, which is not really friendly. @ step 9 Future TODO: Include details for GPT / UEFI disks. Boot mount point and FS are different, as well as the disk initialization part with fdisk (step 2). --- user/downloading-installing-upgrading/custom-install.md | 9 ++++++--- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/user/downloading-installing-upgrading/custom-install.md b/user/downloading-installing-upgrading/custom-install.md index 71a35ba4..a443c385 100644 --- a/user/downloading-installing-upgrading/custom-install.md +++ b/user/downloading-installing-upgrading/custom-install.md @@ -140,14 +140,17 @@ Boot into the Qubes installer, then press `ctrl`+`alt`+`F2` to get a virtual con # lvcreate -V1G -T qubes_dom0/pool00 -n root # lvextend -L /dev/qubes_dom0/root -8.
