Hi all, I would like to understand this better from a UX perspective.
What action can a user take during installation to remedy a situation in which some package couldn’t be installed? What circumstances lead to these failures? Is this information available in a log file? What action can a user take during installation vs after? Is the “normal” linux text boot still accessible by a switch at the bootloader stage?

I fully agree with Frank. When installing, I need to see the RPM output in case something goes wrong and I also want to see which package(s) is/are currently installing, its/theirs size and preferably progress bar. I also need to have access to release notes during the instalation. More information is always better, especially when installing. Is there a _technical_ reason to hide this information from me or the users? > This is not MacOS or Windows where people are intentionally kept dumb.

Please keep technical discussion technical. Regards, Gfs on the road
