[Bug 328473] New: boot loader editor: provide "copy entry" feature
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=328473 Summary: boot loader editor: provide "copy entry" feature Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: RC 1 Platform: i586 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bluedzins@wp.pl QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- I would like to do simple task -- I have entry A and I would like to create new entry, but instead of typing everything from the start I would like to use A as pattern and then only change some things (of course not in A, but in new entry). Btw. I thought "clone selected section" works this way, but no. It clones section, so I have doubled A section -- whatever I do in A' is visible in A''. There are also two default entries -- A' and A''. It is a bit crazy, but maybe I don't understand the designed aim of such feature. -- 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.

Since you confirmed clone is the right way to go and it works I did the test again. And again -- my cloned section was erased, the target section was doubled and both of them were set to default. Please, reproduce it on your own, and then say "it works". Steps: 1) run bootloader editor 2) clone section 3) do a minor change 4) finish 5) run it again -- 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.

This just left my system unbootable because I screwed up my new entry but unknowingly destroyed my original grub entry because of this bug. I had to use rescue mode to get my system back up and fix grub manually. -- 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.
