You have to put a "repo=nfs:host.dom.ain:/root/of/tree" on the command line to the anaconda boot. Then it goes through the usual sequence, but the step after bring up the network skips over asking for the NFS repository (since it was on the command line). This was mentioned in the fedora-anaconda list just this week. I still agree with Chuck that the disk commit should occur after the software selection process. When I asked why on the anaconda list, I got some vague handwaving about the developers preferences for sequences. There still isn't a shutdown or restart option in the GNOME System menu. I've taken to loggin out and selecting restart from the GDM menus. GNOME still doesn't remember sessions options at all. KSensors and KGPGWallet still come up with GNOME. mostly annoyances, nothing fatal that I've found yet. -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
