We _have_ discussed it at length, though (the anaconda team and Mo and I) and the upshot of our discussion was that we should make this possible via a command line parameter rather than a UI option; it's an 'advanced' option that's only of use to multiboot pokemoners (you know...gotta catch 'em all) and is a 'dangerous' option for anyone who doesn't understand it - if you pick it when you don't know what you're doing, you get a non-bootable install. So we agreed a parameter was the way to go. I don't know, though, if it's actually been implemented yet, or if it's still on someone's todo list. I couldn't find anything in the git log for it, but I may have missed it. I've added bcl and dlehman to the bug and asked them to comment. -- 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
