Random plans and ideas for 1.1 and beyond:
clean up the plugin interface a bit. svn path=/trunk/extragear/sysadmin/partitionmanager/; revision=1097594
2010-03-01 18:30:35 +00:00
* The whole lvm/dm debacle.

* The interface between core and the file systems needs some more thought.
Ideally we'd be free to use either external helper apps (like we do now) or
libraries to achieve the same things. Libraries in this case being libntfs-3g
and libext2fs. There's one for reiserfs too, iirc. Using libraries we'd
hopefully be able to get meaningful progress status reporting while resizing,
checking and so on.
add "shred partition" feature svn path=/trunk/extragear/sysadmin/partitionmanager/; revision=1076584
2010-01-18 12:31:00 +00:00
* Information about file system on a separate tab in the properties, unique
to the file system in use.
Add some basic configuration dialog stuff. Remove the option to create msdos-vista-compatible partition tables. Instead, use a global config to determine which alignment to use. Add a device properties dialog. svn path=/trunk/extragear/sysadmin/partitionmanager/; revision=1091755
2010-02-17 13:18:25 +00:00
* Check if no of sectors fits in an unsigned 32 bit int for msdos partition tables.

bar is missing, maybe more.

add basic export-partitiontable-feature svn path=/trunk/extragear/sysadmin/partitionmanager/; revision=1097939

* save msdos mbr?
Add a ctor to CreatePartitionTableOperation that takes a PartitionTable pointer, not a PartitionTable::Type. This is required for the import. Add a basic import partition table feature to the GUI and make it work. Add calls to PartitionManagerWidget::updatePartitions(), MainWindow::enableActions() and the selectedPartitionChanged handler to the operationsChanged handler to make sure the info pane and actions are always updated when the operation stack changes (e.g. on undo). TODO: remove all updatePartition() and similar calls from methods in PartitionManagerWidget. Make the device properties action disabled per default and enable it only if a device is selected. It's actually possible for no device to be selected if the backend doesn't find any devices at all. Fix status tips and markup. svn path=/trunk/extragear/sysadmin/partitionmanager/; revision=1098154
2010-03-03 00:15:26 +00:00
* let the user specify extern command locations and options in the settings
some more TODO ideas svn path=/trunk/extragear/sysadmin/partitionmanager/; revision=1100453
2010-03-07 15:45:00 +00:00
* write a setup-kcm in the style of k3b's so that the user can set the r/w
permissions of the disks there; also use kauth to update the partition table
in the kernel. that should cover all cases where we actually need root
privileges now. (not for 1.1)
add setting of default FS to config dialog svn path=/trunk/extragear/sysadmin/partitionmanager/; revision=1101986
2010-03-11 14:17:21 +00:00
* offer a) no alignment of partition boundaries at all or b) legacy cylinder
alignment or c) sector based alignment (the name is misleading, though)

Bugs:
* copy&paste seems broken wrt alignment when copying from cylinder aligned to
sector aligned drives (maybe even more than that)
