Kamil, do you hate making it Beta? Sigh. Let's make it Beta. Currently there is some movement to make Fedora Branched and all its milestones available in Red Hat's automated testing suite. That uses PXE. Once that is done, I expect more pressure to make it work in Alpha. Another reason why I'm not thrilled is that I perform a lot of testing on a machine that doesn't support booting from USB. So I use PXE, because optical media are PITA. But if anaconda team says it's hard for them to make it in Alpha, let's make it Beta then. -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
