Re: [PATCH] Run firstaidkit-qs script instead of the shell (shows rescue menu) (#508512)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



My original concern that firstaidkit would be taking care os something
that, to me, was best left in anaconda (deciding what to do when in
rescue mode).  But, moving to a situation where firstaidkit completely
handles the rescue mode environment, I don't see why this script can't
be in firstaidkit.

I'll go back on my original suggestion and give a +1 to the
firstaidkit-qs script.
