Hide Forgot
The bootnet image contains the same help as the regular one. It shouldn't ask me if I want to proceed in text mode, because it's going to do that no matter what I choose. Having the option implies that it can do network GUI installs, leaving the user sadly disappointed. :) Pretty trivial, I know, but it's the first thing I see when I start an install.
Wrong, you can do network GUI installs via NFS, so it's not deluding the user.
Oh yeah, I forgot about that; sorry. Still, message should be changed to indicate that FTP and HTTP installs are text only.
Will consider for next release.
When you do an FTP or HTTP install from the bootnet.img, a message is displayed on the console that says: "Graphical install not available for FTP/HTTP installs. Using text mode." This happens when the second stage installer is being started up. I'm not sure what messages you are referring to that asks you if you want to use text mode....Can you elaborate?
In the syslinux boot message. It's not a huge deal, but I bring it up because one of my users was very confused.
Oh, I see. Well, that's a problem. The syslinux bootup screen is as full of text as it can possibly be. There are no lines to spare unless we removed the blank lines between the items in the list, which would make things pretty cluttered. We could remove an item from the list to give us more room for explaination, but that doesn't seem like a good idea. I think we'll leave this the way it is.
