Details / bug #? The only cases I've seen Windows get broken is actually due to something outside of Anaconda's control - Windows not available for boot in grub due to EFI-related stuff - that is easily worked around.
- Another case would be someone installed Fedora with their Windows drive disconnected and now wants to add Windows to the grub menu.
What kind of user are you thinking about here? What level of expertise?
Maybe a wizard here would be nice that would update grub for the user. - Making the partitioning process simpler. Add a few safe guards. People have reported blowing away their partitions by accident.
Where is this reported? The number of safeguards in the new anaconda is massively increased compared to how the old anaconda worked. It takes a much more conservative approach than it ever did, and none of the changes to disk are committed until the user starts the install.
- Adding a ton of tool tips to the UI. Try and predict what people are thinking and try and answer their questions before they have one.
Which UI? ~m -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
