And we should probably keep "-P"/"--partitions" (within "-Z") as default, to avoid
seeing all users or other mounts.
Maybe an option when running QSI "show all partitions" with "--partitions-full" in case users like to see those also included.

I think you are missing what is being thrown

the -P and -p (and the -Z partitions info) do not work on the live system.

Probably mixed -F and -Z:

Here the part QSI on KDE Live with "-F" ( which includes "-P" )
with a manually mounted ESP to /boot/efi:

Code: Select all

Partition:
  ID-1: /boot/efi raw-size: 256 MiB size: 252 MiB (98.46%) used: 274 KiB (0.1%) fs: vfat
    dev: /dev/vdd2 maj-min: 253:50

and here with added -p , where now all other partitions are shown,
mount-clicked in dolphin, including luks:

Code: Select all

Partition:
  ID-1: /boot/efi raw-size: 256 MiB size: 252 MiB (98.46%) used: 274 KiB (0.1%) fs: vfat

ok fair, but not / and /home

In case you want to add the --partion-full inxi option -p like this into QSI:
inxi -Fxxxra -p $filters -c$inxi_color
we might also add to the sed-filtter,
something like this sed-filter: so the sed looks like this: which would than filter out the usernames from /media
and potentially other mounts to current user or other users home

I don’t really.

Folks, please don't get your knickers in a twist. I have zero problems with the way QSI works ATM and if I have a sudden urge to study partition data, I know where I can find them.

I started this whole hullabaloo simply because @m_pav wrote in another thread:

m_pav wrote: Sat Jul 13, 2024 4:54 pmA fully encrypted drive needs to have an unencrypted boot partition to read the bootloader out from. Your QSI shows, no partitions data found which might point to the source of the problem.

... which I took to mean that no partition data found is not to be expected. As @dolphin_oracle has made clear, for a live system this seems to be normal.
