Sure - those require to run int the reconfig mode, where Initial Setup provides access to all the screens it can run on a booted machine.
I was just wondering if the Live media use case, where Initial Setup only creates a user account if none is created at installation time makes sense & could be perhaps replaced by Anaconda just requiring users to create a user at installation time on the Live images. That could reduce the overall complexity a bit. :) > > > -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
