Bug 96319 – risk of mounting the wrong partitions in method mount_local_partitions GLIArchitectureTemplate.py

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Release Media

[Description Steven Mertens 2005-06-16 16:09:00 UTC]

If there are multiple disk devices in the system there is a risk that the
mount_local_partition method mounts the wrong partitions on /mnt/gentoo .

The 'for mountpoint in sorted_list:' will mount all partitions but the string
device can contain the wrong device because it gets set in the previous 
for device in parts: and will always contain the last device encountered.
Which isnt necessarly the correct one. 

The patch will be more descriptive .. :)

I tested this patch on snapshot installer-work-20050616 
and also tested the gtkfe with it.
