Beddingfield, Allen:
> When booting any of the SLES 12 Betas (I'm working with beta 4 right now), the boot menu options are:
> 
> Boot from Hard Disk
> Installation
> Upgrade
> Rescue System
> Check Installation Media
> Firmware Test
> Memory Test
> 
> However, when booting SLES 11.x, they are as follows:
> 
> Boot from Hard Disk
> Installation
> Repair Installed System
> Rescue System
> Check Installation Media
> Firmware Test
> Memory Test
> 
> Will the "Repair Installed System" option be added to SLES 12 at some point?  I've found the ability to get into a few yast modules from that option particularly useful in the past.


The original module was written as a diploma thesis, and it's not
maintainable. We need to completly re-write it, and the schedule doesnt
match the SLE12 one. It is currently not usable on SLE12, so that's why
it has been removed. We plan to get it back for SLE12SP1.



regards.
