I have found (see reference) that restore the root ("/") is not as simple as as just executing the restore command when running in rescue mode. With the current emphasis being place on use of UUIDs in both Fedora and RHEL, the whole business of UUIDs need to be better documented.

[Bug 595695] New: Direct links to RNs broken.
by Red Hat Bugzilla 31 Aug '12

Please do not reply directly to this email. All additional comments should be made in the comments box of this bug. Summary: Direct links to RNs broken. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=595695 Summary: Direct links to RNs broken. Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: low Component: docs-requests AssignedTo: eric(a)christensenplace.us ReportedBy: eric(a)christensenplace.us QAContact: fedora-docs-list(a)redhat.com CC: stickster(a)gmail.com, kwade(a)redhat.com Classification: Fedora Description of problem: * Previously, the release notes were located at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ * Their location has changed to release specific URLs. * A link to the release notes is provided in fedora-bookmarks. * fedora-bookmarks are imported by the browser only on *first launch* so as to not overwrite user modifications. The new bookmarks layout causes two problems: 1. Nobody filed a fedora-bookmarks bug so Fedora 13 (and anyone on F-11 or F-12 etc) will default to going to http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ which is a 404. Since the bookmarks can only be imported on first launch, we cannot push an update to fix this if the user has launched the browser (which is extremely likely). 2. Even if I were to fix the bookmarks page to point directly to a specific release version (which again would take effect only if someone would yum update before launching Firefox), then if anyone updated to F-14, the bookmark would not change and would still point to e.g. F-13. So, I do not think that we should put version specific information into our bookmarks URLs. To solve both of the above problems, I believe we should try to do some User-Agent detection and redirection. Fedora browsers have an RPM NVR attached to them. For example: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; es-ES; rv:1.9.2.4) Gecko/20100517 Fedora/3.6.4-1.fc13 Firefox/3.6.4 This tells us that the user's installed language is es-ES and it's a Fedora browser, specifically running F-13. We should then redirect queries to http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ to http://docs.fedoraproject.org/es-ES/Fedora/13/html/Release_Notes/index.html If we cannot figure any information out about the Fedora release or language (or there are no relnotes in that language), I propose the default redirect should be to the en-US version of the latest Fedora release notes. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.

Fedora 14 Schedule
by John J. McDonough 24 Jul '10

24 Jul '10

One of my tasks has been to review the schedule. Of course, we all should be looking at it. I've been struggling some to make sense of it. There are a couple of issues, but even a few issues can make it very confusing. You should all be aware that John has posted the schedule at http://poelstra.fedorapeople.org/schedules/f-14/ If you look at f-14-docs-tasks.html it can be very confusing since release notes, announcements and guides tasks are all mixed together. The report, f-14-docs-tree-tasks.html is a lot easier to digest. Until you have your head around that one, the docs combined with translation and releng are totally confusing, so look at the tree tasks first. It is a pity that you don't seem to be able to get a Gantt chart out of taskjuggler, but if you download the two files from John's "source" directory (f-14.tjp and reports.tji) and open them up in taskjuggler, you can see the dependencies in the source. To do that: 1) Select the tasks tab on the left 2) Highlight the task you wish to examine (note that in general the tasks are folded into higher level tasks) 3) The task will be highlighted in the source on the right, and if there is a dependency, it will say "depends" on the right under the highlighted task name It still isn't super-simple since Docs is only a tiny part of the whole release, and of the hundreds of "external to docs" tasks, there are perhaps a dozen that actually matter to us directly, and they don't always show up within the folded group (e.g. Beta Release Notes), so it isn't always obvious why a particular task has to happen on a particular day without a fair amount of digging. Rudi and I will be getting updates to John, so if you notice anything that seems out of place please let us know. Thanks, --McD

Docs Project Workflow
by John J. McDonough 07 Jul '10

07 Jul '10

One of the wiki pages identified as "needing love" was the one documenting the workflow we use: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs_Project_workflow I've made a start at updating that, trying to be a bit more graphical. (OK, I'm an engineer; I tend not to read the manual but I do look at the pictures!) We definitely need more detail underneath this, but I would like some feedback on whether this is a helpful approach. All of the old material, some of it badly out of date, is still there but commented out. Some of the things I thing we need: - Guidance on editing the wiki - Guidance on applying for groups - Guidance on conversion to XML, both manual and via the python tool - Howto XML -> Publican -> docs.fp.o Probably lots of others. Any feedback appreciated. --McD
