Description Nalin Dahyabhai 2006-02-08 19:14:46 UTC
Description of problem:
If a sysadmin decides to set firstboot to run at boot-time, and finds
/etc/sysconfig/firstboot with "RUN_FIRSTBOOT=no" as its contents, it's not
unreasonable to expect that setting "RUN_FIRSTBOOT=yes" will do the job.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.4.3-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. echo RUN_FIRSTBOOT=yes > /etc/sysconfig/firstboot
2. unset DISPLAY
3. /usr/sbin/firstboot --reconfig
  
Actual results:
Nothing.

Expected results:
Firstboot's TUI, in all its glory.

Additional info:
It looks like there's no "return True" statement to be called if "FIRSTBOOT=no"
isn't found and we fall out of the "for" loop.
