How about... * The live images must properly support mounting and using a persistent storage overlay for the entire system and/or one for the /home partition, if such an overlay or overlays have been correctly written to the medium from which the image is booted Does that better encapsulate that we require the images to work properly wrt persistent overlay, but the tools can be fixed post-release? -- 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
