From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031030 Description of problem: The boot disk prompt is rather silly and unnecessary when the user is installing from CD-ROM. Red Hat installation media have included a boot prompt to go into rescue mode for some years now; this is better than a boot floppy in several obvious ways. Every interaction that can be removed from the installer is one fewer source of intimidation to non-technical users. This one should go. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-9.2.2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Do a normal installation from CD-ROM 2. 3. Additional info:
Additionally, if you try to create a boot diskette on FC2-test2 (nfs installation after cdrom boot) the installer will just tell you that there wouldn't be enough space on the floppy anyway. This part of the interface should be removed.
As of FC2 test2, the boot disk prompt will go away.
