I understand your point. But on an installed system, things would not behave this way. On an installed Edgy, the system would not prevent you from doing "gory" stuff via sudo :)
In this perspective, a "LiveCD session" is not a "true" Ubuntu Edgy session. Playing in a terminal with basic commands does not give results conforming to what common sense expects. To explain further what I am bothered with: I use the LiveCD to test deb packages of mine. In these, the installation scripts succeed, but the effects are not as expected with respect to the underlying filesystem. To me, this should be at least signaled somewhere. It took me time to figure out that the problem was not the quality of my deb packages, but rather a lower level issue related to the "LIVEness". -- Edgy LiveCD : unexpected volatility & persistance of files https://launchpad.net/bugs/75582 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
