Hi Paul, Thanks for bringing this up. > One way to fix that would be to bring them back -- essentially go back > to producing the images we offered before.

If we only advertise live media for workstation, most users will simply download and try that and they'd be annoyed by lack of express installation option for an OS on which they are likely using Boxes. Besides, I really don't see a good use case for not advertising these media. As I pointed out to Christian yesterday, we have plenty of free space on the right side here for just one more ISO link: https://getfedora.org/en_GB/workstation/prerelease/ in comparison the server's download page looks more complete: https://getfedora.org/en_GB/server/prerelease/ > What are the other alternatives for fixing? As you can see on the discussion on the bug you linked in your mail, I was told that it'd be good if Boxes/libosinfo could support express install through netiso. I've spend quite a lot of hours getting that to work[1]. The final set of patches that will actually make it work are pending review on libosinfo list. However we still have some issues that I can't fix on my end: 1. There is still no plan to advertise an F22 workstation or generic netinstaller. 2. Live media (that is advertised) does not support kickstar AFAIKt: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=947376 . This isn't really an issue if #1 is resolved. -- Regards, Zeeshan Ali (Khattak) ________________________________________ Befriend GNOME: http://www.gnome.org/friends/ [1] That included adding new mechanism in libosinfo to identify media through volume-size since we won't even ensure unique volume IDs on every ISO, a standard good practice even followed by certain big proprietary companies famous for not following standards (Yes, I'm ranting but I've been very patient about this until now). -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
