@ Steve, thanks for your reply. You said "install vs. try is the first selection they should need to make".
I've always recommended that everyone select "Check CD for defects" before proceeding with an installation. And, as I said, even though I'm aware of the new behavior I've sometimes missed the opportunity to press a key and display the "options" due to some unexpected interruption. I swear it must be a 3 to 5 second window, and I'm familiar enough with most of the machines I work on to know what (if any) boot parameters to edit. Still, I agree that it's not an incredibly critical flaw, hardly something that would have sent me distro-hopping even when I was new to Ubuntu. IMHO a minor nuisance at worst :^) At risk of being a nuisance you said, "Please work with the design team instead to improve our live CD's boot behavior for maverick." Beyond posting my question at Ayatana what's the best method to approach the design team? The only dumb question is the one never asked, eh? -- Lucid Live CD fails to display boot options w/o user action https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/539172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
