What would be nice to have early is "advanced options" menu item, that will allow experienced users to use few exotic boot or installation options, or to direct new users what to do with lesser words. -- Regards, Rajko. http://en.opensuse.org/Portal -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
