I don't mind what the page name is.
I put the "Redhat" in the name because other non-Redhat-ish systems
might have something vaguely rescue-ish. So we would want both this
current "Redhat rescue" topic and a potential (say) "Debian rescue" topic.
The "hints" was to allow us to have one page

A page named "Rescue mode" is more appropriate than a generic catch-all.
What's a hint? What's not? Etc.

Yes (happens to be RHEL 5.6 in my particular case).

My first thought would be if you're still specifying your original
kickstart, that's interfering with rescue mode, or some other kernel
option conflicts.

This reads a bit negatively, as nobody's failing to think here.
Cobbler covers a wide variety of audiences. There are people using it
in home labs, up to systems with 50k+ nodes in distributed data centers
all over the world. A lot of what Cobbler does is tota
"Could those voting against the proposed "--rescue-mode=true" provide a
working, and tested, recipe of the steps to achieve this, please?"
Rescue mode works independent of approach A or B, it's a distribution feature,
not a Cobbler feature. The how it works in Cobbler's interface is different

You are right.

I realize it makes re-enabling the feature more complicated but I'd like to
throw my hat in with the --rescue-mode=true style of use instead of
changing profiles.

Thanks, Michael. I filed a ticket (#14) on 7 December. Joergen Mass is
also interested in this topic.
My personal view, following a brief discussion with Joergen, remains
that we ought to view this primarily from the angle of "keep it simple
and well-documented for the average end-user". We
Filing a ticket in github (github.com/cobbler/cobbler) should be good enough.
(I think reinstating the original behavior works best, at least at the code
level.)

Thanks, Michael.
This isn't urgent for us. But it is something which I think would be
very, very nice to have readily and easily available in the future.
For any established system "client1", it would be good to be able to do
something as simple as a re-enabling of the original specification:
Here's an older post that should be helpful:
