y2logs saved before proceeding past installation settings screen
To reproduce:
1-start HTTP installation using Grub and 20161105 linux and initrd
2-select do not install any bootloader (no bootloader management)
3-set taboo on grub2, shim and os-prober packages
4-click install button on installation settings screen
Actual behavior:
1-Error window reports error that must be resolved before continuing
2-installation settings screen reports grub2 needs to be selected
Expected behavior:
1-installation proceeds without insisting on installing an unneeded and
unwanted bootloader package
Notes:
1-42.2 worked as expected done the same way on 30 November, as did all similar
previous installations of both Distribution and Tumbleweed since Grub ceased to
be a bootloader option during installation.
2-I proceeded with the installation by leaving locks set on all grub2* packages
other than grub2 and specifying /dev/null as the bootloader installation target
3-whether related or not I have no idea, but login was not allowed on first
boot. I booted 42.2, chrooted into TW, executed passwd, and was able to boot
into TW and login successfully.
4-rpm -e grub2 on first successful boot succeeded.
