Yes, if the HD is formatted... there is nothing on it :-)
I have a little suggestion: add a new Panoramix menu and allow the user to
open a console shell ( or something for editing lilo.conf manually for "expert"
install/upgrade ).
Another suggestion:
sometime I simply need to rebuild a broken rescue diskette or restore some files
from the original CD... using RedHat installation I can't do absolutely
nothing... nothing other than install/upgrade.
I want to use the CD for other things:
re-run lilo for emergencies without other action
rebuild a rescue diskette without upgrade/install
access to hd for fixate some stupid error
install some package or only view the deps
....
Bye
Alessandro
