#1) The bug is with Anaconda not grub2 from my understanding. #2) There is nothing broken any any alpha->beta process. We collectively decided to move this bug to F17 final blocker. Can you install Fedora 17? Yes. Will you have problems installing it in specific ways? Yes. Is this normal for a beta and an alpha OS release? Yes. See win 8 Consumer preview for a recent example. It's not a final reason for a reason. There are still bugs.

That's still notabug, I think. See my comment. Even if it wasn't, the fault isn't anaconda's. It installs grub2 into the partition just fine. The code for doing so did not change in any way from F16 to F17, or from F17 Alpha to F17 Beta. It's in pyanaconda/bootloader.py if you want to look. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
