Kickstart documentation has been moved
by Martin Kolman 24 Oct '16

24 Oct '16

Hi, the upstream kickstart documentation has been moved to Read the Docs: http://pykickstart.readthedocs.io/en/latest/kickstart-docs.html The documentation is now automatically generated from the pykickstart source code, includes additional information such as when the given command or option was introduced, should cover more commands and also contains a separate listing of commands for Fedora and RHEL. Thanks a lot Aleksandar Todorov, Chris Lumens and others who made this possible! Best Wishes Martin Kolman

User config specification implemented
by Martin Kolman 07 Oct '16

07 Oct '16

Hi, the user config specification has been implemented by Anaconda and is ready to use by pre & post installation setup tools! Both current Rawhide and Fedora 25 Anacondas have this functionality and it is enabled. I would also like to note that at the moment only the spoke visit tracking is implemented by Anaconda, not yet the optional option- changed tracking. This is partially deliberate as there is a substantial amount of options on the screens of the Anaconda GUI, and we would like to first start tracking the options post installation setup tools are actually going to use. So if you your post installation setup tool needs better granularity than just the Anaconda screen visit tracking then let us know what options would you like us to start tracking in the interaction config files for changes made by the user. The screen hiding mechanism has also been implemented, so Anaconda will not show screens that have been marked as visited in an existing user interaction config file. This can be used by pre-installation setup tools, like for example a hypothetical language selection widget, which could use this mechanism to notify Anaconda to skip it's own language selection screen. Another use case is to hide screens not considered necessary for a given distro variant.
