<br><br>Huh?</blockquote><div><br>The After screen will indicate what setup is going to do, the before screen indicates what was there before. It gives users a better indication on what will be done. If they load a previously created setup file, it is not obvious if the creator of the setup file included partitioning information or if they have to set it up themselves.

<br><br>Nope. The install guide doesn't say that a logger is optional, so that option<br>will not be in the GTK frontend. While I know that it isn't necessary, we're<br>trying to stick to the install guide as much as possible. Although, it may be
