The close reason makes sense since the version that the fix is supposed to appear in really is in rawhide (which is up to 0.97 right now). However, this doesn't do anybody any good if this rawhide version never makes it into the core product. Although the bug was apparently fixed over a year ago, nothing that has shipped since (both FC 4 and RHEL 4 shipped after January/05) includes it. My personal guess is re-opening the bug isn't going to help an FC 4 user and waiting for FC 5 will give you a fix. I don't run Fedora so I may not even know when that happens. A RHEL 4 customer may chose to raise a stink and we may see a fix coming then. However, I expect those RHEL customers that really, really need mirroring for their boot drives will buy RAID controllers anyway (we certainly do) so there's probably nobody out there that is going to be able to escalate this. I really dislike it when vendors close a bug because the fix is in their development release. It is not fixed until this is shippable - after all, it may very easily fail QA and never ship. For all we know, the fixed grub may not be shipping because it simply doesn't work. .../Ed -- Ed Wilts, RHCE Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
