I also think this should be fixed in wheezy as touching this part of the installer is non-trivial and we're in a freeze. (The squeeze tag is uneeded here / used in a different way by the Debian release team.) cheers, Holger -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-edu-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

The profile workstation is the one you need if you want a functioning machine, that is not a server. So this profile is most certainly useful. -- Klaus Ade 67E61D18B2C44F8A3DA35C6D849F9F5F 26FA477D signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

The good old workstation with hard drive. So could the choice be between one of these: * Main server * Thin client server * Main server + thin client server * Workstation * Roaming workstation * Standalone * Minimal Maybe we can combine roaming and normal workstation? Does the roaming version contain something that would harm workstation use? -- Marius -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-edu-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Package: debian-edu-install Version: 1.519 Severity: minor Tags: squeeze The list of the different profiles has been expanded with new items, multiple selections are possible, and there are some dependencies/conflicts between them. I suggest that it should be changed to use radio boxes for the valid combinations of profiles (at least the useful ones). The list will then probably be a choice between one of: * Main server * Thin client server * Main server + thin client server * Roaming workstation * Standalone * Minimal I guess workstation profile is not useful in itself and should be hidden and just be included where it is needed behind the scenes. If this is too drastic change, at least the choices made in the checkboxes should reflect the rules about valid combinations and adjust accordingly in the dialog (e.g. selecting Standalone should deselect all other checkboxes). -- Marius -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-edu-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
