The last time I Posted a list there were 4 showstopper issues:
1) zero length release.rpms
2) running gettys on other vts needs to be documented
3) pcitable propagation
4) installer splash screen still says beta
since then some progress was made
1) I have a fix in afs. I need someoen to test it after I porpogate
it to charon. Please send me mail if you're willing to help and we
can coordinate. <late breaking news, Garry is dealing>
2) This afternoon Liana volunteered to deal with this.
3) This was removed from the showstopper list. It was there because I
originally mis-understood what state things were in. there is still a
bug, but not a showstopper.
4) /afs/sipb/user/golem/art/splash.png was offered as a replacement.
I need to drop it into
./RedHat/instimage/usr/share/anaconda/pixmaps/splash.png and confirm
that it does not cause any problems. This should be fast and should
be the last thing that is done before we declare success.
When Liana volunteered this afternoon, I didn't ask her how fast she
could deal, but it appears that that documentation will be the only
thing we're waiting on after tonight. Sorry for the pressure
Liana. :-)
