Description Lukas Ocilka 2006-09-04 11:12:24 UTC 
The dialog "Select a Root Partition" says: There are several valid root partitions in your system. Select one item in the list.

It could provide more information than just the partition name (/dev/hda3), e.g., a Product name (openSUSE 10.2) if such exists on the partition, or the file system type.

Comment 4 Lukas Ocilka 2006-09-15 08:18:03 UTC 
Yes, I like it :)
How does it inform user when there is no detected system (no SUSE), is the partition also offered?
Comment 5 Jiří Suchomel 2006-09-15 08:26:07 UTC 
There is no check for specific suse partition and there's a popup if no linux partition is found.
