[Bug 1022550] New: Live media shouldn't check for updates
http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1022550 Bug ID: 1022550 Summary: Live media shouldn't check for updates Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Live Medium Assignee: coolo@suse.com Reporter: adrien.plazas@suse.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- When booting a Tumbleweed GNOME live medium, trying to install the system right after booting fails because PackageKit is taken by the update mechanism; you have to wait for the update manager to finish its job before being able to install the system. The problem is that looking for updates on live media makes no sense so we should disable it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

If you have an old live medium, you should know it's insecure to run in the internet. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
