I agree, but I'm willing to let it go for F17. The one complaint I still have is that the window is really huge. I mean, it's taking up, what, 80% of the desktop real estate? > A good time and place to offer an 'install' option might be on startup (e.g. > via a notification popup), and on shutdown (by an 'install' menu option next > to 'reboot', and by another popup notifification 'you are about to shut down > the system; do you want to permanently install to disk?') I dunno. I think if there are concerns by the anaconda team about the machine state for running from within a live session, that state is even less known on shutdown than on startup. I'd sooner encourage a reboot. Another reason why I prefer the options: Live vs Install, at either bootloader menu or login.
