hmm well there are two problems: * the non-obvious select list ist dealt below * i guess once that is done, <enter> will appear more logical for selects, because there is no hint on how to select. > The real fix of course is to fix #265517 (newt frontend should delniate > the contents of select lists somehow). yeeah that would be great! > > * going back from grub screen should not automatically lower > > debconf priority > > as some user prefer lilo (known configs, old habits,..) > > If it didn't lower the priority, you'd not be able to choose lilo from > the menu, would you? well but succesfull lilo install could again reset debconf to higher. sorry for getting in details for whom i don't know the consequences, reformulate wishlist (hope it makes it clearer): * get an easy prompt to select lilo without having to change debconf priority? thanks a lot for the quick response. -- maks kernel janitor http://janitor.kernelnewbies.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
