In general, yes, permanent installs to removable media just aren't really a priority for development or testing. I've had your bug open for a couple of weeks, intending to test it out locally if I get a chance, but there's just always been something more important. I'll still try and get to it. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ test mailing list -- test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to test-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
