Thanks, but you still didn't say what options you chose during the run<br>
of anaconda.<br>

<br>
that's probably because i don't understand what options are you<br>
referring to: software to install? location? probably the last thing<br>
i've choosed was whch of those two hard disks to use as an install<br>
target. i did not see anywhere an option about what kind of<br>
partitioning i should choose .... maybe it was there and i did not see<br>
it?<br>

If you just picked a disk and continued, then yup, as the bug report states, anaconda will reformat the entire disk.<br>
<br>
The way into custom partitioning, for Alpha, is to click 'let me review and modify the partitions anyway' (well, roughly, I forget the exact wording). That takes you into the custom partitioning interface. If you didn't enter that, then anaconda's behaviour would be to reformat all disks you selected. Again, this will change for Beta/Final.<div class="HOEnZb">
<div class="h5"><br><br></div></div></blockquote><div>i see, apparently, for me at least, that was another unexpected change.<br>in such a case, the bug i've reported i'll consider it a feature, since it prevented the loss of all data :D<br>
<br>thank you very much for all the help! <br></div></div><br>
