I understand and support limiting what's added, but I think this should be there given the "can't do this thing after install" effect. The flip side is there are some things that are probably obsolete, like I can't remember the last time I used a tape drive or PCMCIA card or even drive that needed hdparm (but I know that always can devolve into arguments rapidly). :) I'll submit a PR. -- Chris Adams ___ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue

Requesting an addition to the install image
Where is the proper place to request something be added to the install image? I was going to file a BZ but wasn't sure of the proper component. I'd like to see nvme-cli (and libnvme, which it depends on) added to the install image. I wanted to switch an NVMe drive to 4K sectors, which reformats it, so I needed to do that before installing Fedora (or have to install, change, then reinstall). It would be much more convenient to be able to boot into rescue mode to do this. -- Chris Adams ___ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
