Changelog
partman-auto (134ubuntu1) xenial; urgency=medium
* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
Recipe changes:
- Adjust default partition and EFI sizes for Ubuntu.
- Change the x86 atomic recipes to make the minimum swap size be 100% of
RAM, so that hibernate always works.
- In addition to EFI partition, reuse existing swap partitions and
BIOS Boot Partitions, if any, rather than creating new ones.
- Use fat32 rather than free as a filesystem type for the efi partitions
for amd64, arm64, i386; otherwise it's seen as an ext2 partition by
partman-efi, which causes errors or missing settings.
Automatic Partitioning:
- Offer resize_use_free autopartitioning method, except on armel/armhf.
- Add an option to reuse an existing installation.
- Split out the replace option from resize_use_free.
Code changes:
- Accept autopartitioning automatically rather than showing
choose_partition.
- Drop priority of partman-auto/choose_recipe question to medium.
- Add support for partman-auto/method=loop via partman-auto-loop.
- Make biggest_free respect the selection made in partman-auto/disk.
- Exclude devices containing the installation medium from automatic
partitioning.
- Use new get_real_resize_range function from partman-partitioning
72ubuntu3, which caches calls to tune2fs and ntfsresize.
- Support resizing the largest partition on multiple disks.
- Support formatting the entire partition for any partition that can be
resized.
* Double minimum and maximum sizes for the /boot partitions on amd64, i386,
and arm (especially for EFI). (LP: #1465050)
