Why? I don't see any obvious technical reason why it couldn't still simply dump the live image onto the hard disk, as it (more or less) does at present. If anything it'd be easier, because the image it was trying to dump wouldn't be...the running environment. :) -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
