Hello, first time install of arch, I picked a specific partition to install the root fs (not the whole drive), and the final warning it gave me was
Formatting /dev/nvme0n1 in 5...4.. -> where nvme0n1 is the drive, not the selected partition (which was nvme0n1p6).
It was scary because I have a data partition on this disk I did not want to lose (no backup yolo)
I think this is the code responsible for this line
|
out = tr(' ! Formatting {} in ').format(device_paths) |
Could this be maybe changed to only include the partitions that will be impacted, rather than the whole device?
Something like Formatting selected partitions in /dev/nvme0n1 in 5...4..
