Subject: Re: [Test-Announce] Fedora 18 Alpha Test Compose 3 (TC3)
Available Now!
Am I missing something (coffee maybe?) or the installer doesn't ask
to enter a pswd for root & to create a user account? Or is it part
of the "Initial Experience" feature? If it matter I selected the
base install since it's still impossible to pick the GNOME desktop
during install due to dep issues.
That's ok. I was missing coffee too. Then I got more. It didn't
help.
I see the same thing. I believe you're right. It looks like
firstboot does not work because it requires X which we don't have
from
a "base" install?
I had to boot to single user mode to reset the root password so I
could log in.
Yes, you're both right. Apparently this is still undergoing discussions
in the anaconda team: the current design relies on you doing an install
and then creating an 'admin' user with firstboot, a plan which certainly
has holes, like this one (there is no firstboot on a non-graphical
install). I'll file a bug and mark it an Alpha blocker so this doesn't
drop off radar for Alpha (non-graphical installs are expected to work at
Alpha).
