I believe it disables virt-manager usage, need to confirm. (Really though it would be cool if virt-manager just opened up a text console in those cases, wouldn't it?) Personally I'm a console person so I think having no graphics should be the default, but I hate flip-flopping on options and syntax. --Michael _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
