Plans and ideas for 1.1:
|
2009-11-29 17:19:38 +00:00
|
|
|
|
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.
|
2010-02-17 13:18:25 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2010-03-11 22:56:42 +00:00
|
|
|
* Check if no of sectors fits in an unsigned 32 bit int for msdos partition
|
|
|
|
|
tables.
|
2010-02-23 17:17:08 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2010-03-02 13:35:57 +00:00
|
|
|
* save msdos mbr?
|
|
|
|
|
|
2010-03-28 12:31:12 +01:00
|
|
|
* let the user specify external command locations and options in the settings;
|
2010-03-11 22:56:42 +00:00
|
|
|
use some program and binary management setup internally like k3b has it
|
2010-03-03 00:15:26 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2010-03-11 22:56:42 +00:00
|
|
|
* parse progress information at least from e2fsck and ntfsclone (do we use the
|
|
|
|
|
latter at all? if not we should); maybe others.
|
2010-03-07 15:45:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
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)
|
2010-03-07 15:45:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2010-03-21 10:50:44 +00:00
|
|
|
* don't hardcode any support for libparted-related stuff like shrinking fat16
|
|
|
|
|
in the file system classes.
|
2010-03-12 13:08:05 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2010-03-27 13:22:20 +00:00
|
|
|
* support KLocale::BinaryUnitDialect and use KLocale's formatting methods
|
|
|
|
|
|

Bugs to fix for 1.1:
|
2010-03-03 00:15:26 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2010-03-11 14:17:21 +00:00
|
|
|
* copy&paste seems broken wrt alignment when copying from cylinder aligned to
|
|
|
|
|
sector aligned drives (maybe even more than that)
|
2010-03-11 22:56:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2010-03-16 11:40:54 +00:00
|
|
|
* resizing a newly created extended that has children (leading to a merge of
|
2010-03-26 15:04:46 +00:00
|
|
|
operations) crashes in NewOperation::description(). this is intermittent
|
|
|
|
|
and probably fixed in r1107315.
|
2010-03-16 11:40:54 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2010-03-20 11:07:00 +00:00
|
|
|
* make sure the default file system can indeed be created
|
|
|
|

For releases after 1.1:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* 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
|
2010-03-28 12:31:12 +01:00
|
|
|
privileges now. -- we actually also need root privs for SMART now.
|
2010-03-11 22:56:42 +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
|
2010-03-28 12:31:12 +01:00
|
|
|
and libext2fs. There's one for reiserfs too, iirc.
|
2010-03-11 22:56:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2010-03-28 12:31:12 +01:00
|
|
|
* Write a udisks backend plugin.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Add a SMART self test operation, only available if the backend plugin
|
|
|
|
|
supports that (udisks does, libparted does not).
