I should probably have used only 'safe' here. My understanding of the "fallback work" was that with it, we could do updates automatically and retry them after failures without risking ending up in a state where we have no working bootloader. The update process would look like this: 1. Verify current bootloader hash 2. Fix it if not good 3. Copy current version to fallback 4. Update bootloader to new version What I've indeed forgotten to specify is that this only applies to EFI (so probably only x86 & aarch64) for now as that's what's implemented in bootupd.

We definitely want to backport all that to F36/37. This will only be possible for changes not in Anaconda, as we don't respin the installers. I'm not 100% sur yet we'll need Anaconda changes but mentioning it here in case it turns out we do. Thanks for the comments, I'll update the proposal. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
