Hi,
have nobody any infos to this?!
Btw.: will you accept a patch which add this feature?
How many times would you run the media check?
Only once as the same way as in the *default*
redhat/fedora/... "menu-options"
What if it fails sometimes, passes sometimes? (I have had this happen -
same drive , so decided nonce was enough!).
But what does the fedora/redhat make, it stops the installation, isn't
it?!
If you want to do a media check, I suggest you do that separately. It's
an intensively manual process, and ks is designed to do away with
manual.
Ok.
A better idea I think, is to verify the media when burning.
Ok, but if the Hardware in the target maschine can't read the medium but
the on the burned maschine was all ok?!
and if the hardware on the target machine can read is sometimes and fail
sometimes? This is what happened to me.
What if mediacheck fails, but you can in fact read all the files you
need? This is perfectly possible, and I've seen this too.
Nothing is perfect. The only test that matters is when you're reading
stuff to install it.
As for me, I prefer to install from the network. With broadband,
directly off the Internet is probably quicker than downloading media,
burning media etc, and if you're doing multiple installs then a local
cache (Squid or Apache) makes it as good as a local LAN.
