Ping? Hello??? This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release. Product Management has requested further review of this enhancement by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed products. This enhancement is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update release. OK thanks for that RHEL PM. Let us know when you allow the coders or docs people to actually fix the problem. This has been fixed in the RHEL5 documentation We're in the process of converting the RHEL 4 documentation over to xml. Once that is done we can put this change in and republish. Proposing for FasTrack No point... FasTrack only "fixes" it for people who remember to get it. *I* know that the docs are mis-leading... I submitted the bug. Fixing this doc bug for everyone else should happen in RHEL 4.5 or 4.6, IMHO RHEL 4 documentation is converted to xml. We're tidying it up and this change will be introduced soon. Here's the new text: "This command prompts you to insert a floppy diskette containing updates (bug fixes) for the anaconda installer. It is not needed if you are performing a network installation and have already placed the updates image contents in RHupdates/ on the server." Copying jfearn in to get an idea on the eta of publication. Looks a bit better, thanks.
