Hi all,

when putting the Live CD iso onto an USB stick and then booting from
that, I can often after an unclean shutdown (which is common with GNOME3
/ systemd) no longer boot. Either the mounting of the overlay fails
("/sbin/init not found" from KIWI, on a toughbook with intel i855GM
graphics) or the system panics (kbd lights blinking, no debugging
possible) after (trying to?) mounting the overlay (on a compaq nc6000,
radeon mobility 9600 / RV350 graphics).

So my request / question is:

Would it be possible to put a "erase data partition" entry into the
gfxboot on live media?

Or is there a secret "reset_to_factory" boot parameter which is
undocumentend?

Right now, I have to use another computer to drop partition 4 of the
stick, which is not good if the stick should be used as rescue medium... ;-)

Best regards,

        seife
