There are many ways to teak the installer and people keep asking for more.
We are discussing use cases and ways to improve things on github:

Regarding this topic, Ladislav did a great presentation today about this POC [1]. I have some doubts about this approach (having an "installer console"), so I would like to open the discussion here: * Having a console to do "whatever" could lead to tons of misuses (and bug reports). * YaST users might be not that accustomed to run "yast commads". After all, current yast CLI is not that well shaped. * Opening a console to configure the installer sounds a bit tricky. Personally, I would prefer to have some dialog to configure the installer. I see it more understandable and easier to use: * Configuration options would be more discoverable. * Options would be clearly limited to only what we offer in the config dialog. * It would be less tricky on text mode. One of the thing I would expect is to avoid to use many of the current linuxrc parameters in order to affect YaST. I would like to open a configuration dialog and tweak the installer directly there. What do you think? Regards, Iván [1] https://github.com/yast/yast-installation/pull/905 -- José Iván López González YaST Team at SUSE LINUX GmbH IRC: jilopez
