Okay,
I see. I always burn the ISOs to DVD and do bare metal installs from
DVD; so I am testing this criteria every time I install a new drop for
testing. Well, I have no plans to change my install procedure. I don't
test every drop, and so far I wait to start testing until the new
version is branched. Other than that I will certainly report it if I get
one that will not boot from DVD. Would it be good for me to test a a
couple of Rawhide drops just after the beginning of each cycle?
I guess, given this, I don't mind if it's no longer a blocker for Beta;
as long as it is still expected functionality and works in the released
version.
Have a Great Day!
