I'll reply with in line comments regarding Chris's wording below. I'm not a native speaker, so please correct me if you can. > You are currently running Fedora from live media. This is nice, better than the original "an uninstalled live image" -- I guess "uninstalled" is a term that developers are used to, but doesn't make a lot of sense for end users.

I agree that it's a good idea to explain how to find the Anaconda icon. (I'll have to nitpick here and say that the correct term is "Activities overview", which has a list of favorite applications in the "Dash".) Also note that this notification is going to be displayed in the fallback mode as well, so if we go with explaining how to find the Anaconda icon, we are likely to need two separate texts. I don't think it's good style to spell out what the controls on the notification do -- "To install Fedora, click Install". This sounds more like an user's manual, not something we should be displaying as the most prominent text that the user will see. In my opinion, the text should talk about user's actions, but not how to use the controls in the dialog box. How about this as the main text: You are currently running Fedora from live media. If you are ready, you can install Fedora now, or choose "Install to Hard Drive" in the Activities overview at any later time. and this for the fallback mode: You are currently running Fedora from live media. If you are ready, you can install Fedora now, or choose "Install to Hard Drive" in the System Tools menu at any later time. -- Thanks, Kalev -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
