https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=299625#c2 Rajko Matovic changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Severity|Normal |Enhancement --- Comment #2 from Rajko Matovic 2007-08-13 20:36:21 MST --- I changed severity to enhancement. That is what I missed first time. In question is missing ability to set/change/view active (boot) flag on partition using YaST partitioner. There are other programs (fdisk, cfdisk) that can be used for that task, but I guess that YaST and it's modules should be central point of system administration. For a long time this feature was irrelevant as GRUB specific code was installed in MBR and it was not important what partition was active. With generic MBR that looks for a bootable partition this is important feature for YaST partitioner. I stumbled over this looking how to explain what to do in case that boot screen installed with 10.3 Beta version is not what user wants, and he wants to have back previous installed with 10.2. I got to resort to explanation using cfdisk as you can't use YaST Partitioner. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=299625#c7 --- Comment #7 from Rajko Matovic 2007-08-20 17:23:48 MST --- That seems to be kind of catch 22. New features need to go through FATE. FATE is not publicly accessible. I guess that the only way would be to have faith that you are going to put it in a FATE ;-) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

How are OpenSUSE alpha/beta testers and users supposed to request new features except via Bugzilla when FATE is not accesible to them? Why does Bugzilla have an ENHANCEMENT status if not for new/enhanced features requests? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

We will continue to handle enhancements requests here - and make the process clear and visible to everyone. I'm sorry for this confusion here. Thomas, could you add this *yourself* as feature to FATE, please? Once you've done that, feel free to resolve the bug. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

If you have better usecases, feel free to post them here, but please don't reopen it unless there is a good reason. About the FATE/bugzilla issue, nevermind. Use bugzilla enhancements with a good use case to file enhancement proposals, unless you are in contact with some developer. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I reopened and asked for a proper evaluation and an answer to both comment #9 and #13 - and that's what Duncan did.
