Description Steffen Winterfeldt 2007-07-23 13:49:15 UTC

To make some progress in bug 273104 and bug 156529 I added a 'repair' boot
menu entry. To be useful, yast should be able to start the
'repair installed system' directly. Maybe it's enough to modify the startup
scrip to run the rescue module instead of the installation module; don't know.
Currently I just pass repair=1 at the command line.

Created attachment 152457 [details]
patch for yast start scripts

As a quick hack I'm using the attached patch; but it's certainly done
the wrong way. I guess we should pass this option via install.inf as
all the others.

Comment 2 Steffen Winterfeldt 2007-07-23 16:10:01 UTC

Adding Marcus, IIRC he does the startup scripts.

Comment 3 Marcus Schaefer 2007-07-23 16:27:51 UTC

Arvin Schnell is responsible for the startup scripts now

Comment 4 Arvin Schnell 2007-08-08 13:55:53 UTC

Please write the info into install.inf, e.g. "Repair=1".

Comment 5 Steffen Winterfeldt 2008-03-12 14:54:58 UTC

this works meanwhile
