Seems to be a regression or change in behavior in grubby, though this workaround looks fine. (Previously grubby would pick the installed boot loader -- perhaps it is confused because both grub and lilo were installed on this system). Looks good, except for the "\" new line continuations that make Python's indentation less useful, though I can take care of removing that. Also, please note new mailing list for future patch submissions: https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler-devel Thanks! --Michael _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
