Sure, added in CVS HEAD. Is this going to port forward to RHEL4? /me doubts it but checks anyway Mass-closing lots of old bugs which are in MODIFIED (and thus presumed to be fixed). If any of these are still a problem, please reopen or file a new bug against the release which they're occurring in so they can be properly tracked. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040803 Firefox/0.9.3 Description of problem: It would be nice if Anaconda printed some sort of indication to the serial console that a GUI install was taking place. For systems such as HP rx2600 where users can be connected to serial console remotely via the MP, it can be confusing if a GUI install is taking place, since there is no indication except the string "ATI9" (in the case of the rx2600) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Connect to the local VGA/USB console on a system equipped with an additional remote serial console. Start a GUI install 2. Connect to the remote serial console (such as HP rx2600 Management Processor, a.k.a. MP) 3. Try to figure out what is happening with the system Additional info:
