You can start an install and do ctrl-alt-backspace and then re-login, and the transaction is still running in the background. It also stops you shutting down using a system and session inhibit if the transaction is an a non-cancellable state. If you /sbin/shutdown as root, or suffer a power failure without a UPS, then all bets are off :-) Richard. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
