Hi, our plan is to keep firstboot alive for OEM and possibly Live CD reasons. In the standard install scenario we will show the firstboot screens during package extraction and probably mark them as done. Firstboot will then show only the screens which weren't configured (if there are any). Regarding the specific screens: - Anaconda will have to keep setting the time and timezone to prevent bugs like https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=171187. - We also plan on creating the user (root or wheel group member) during the package extraction step. -- Martin Sivak msivak@xxxxxxxxxx Anaconda team / Brno, CZ ----- Original Message ----- > ----- Original Message ----- > > Hello, > > it seems that not all relevant parties have been talking to each > > other; if anyone else should be involved, please add them. > > > > In short, a new Fedora feature > > https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/InitialExperience was > > proposed, replacing firstboot for the GNOME spin (only) and > > integrating per-system and per-user configuration. > > > > The original suggestion was for non-GNOME spins (including the DVD > > installation) would continue using firsboot. > > > > > > Now it turns out that anaconda plans to do more setup during the > > initial installation (including setting up the clock and adding an > > initial user), perhaps making all of firstboot unnecessary on > > non-live > > installations.
