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
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.
Not sure I've ever seen this red countdown screen. Are you talking
about graphical install mode?

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

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 that
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.

My 2cents: I never had a problem with switching profiles. But I thought - and correct me if I'm
wrong - rescue-mode for RHEL is just a matter of adding rescue to the Kernel

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

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:
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.)
