+ s/x86_64/i586/ for 32bit

Testing MGA4 x64 real hardware.

As per Description. Before update:
 # diskdrake --dav
 Click the 'New' button
 Input http://test
 Click the 'Finish' radio button
Yields an error (crash) window with a lot of details.

Update to:
 drakxtools-16.26.13-1.mga4
 drakxtools-backend-16.26.13-1.mga4
 drakxtools-curses-16.26.13-1.mga4
 harddrake-16.26.13-1.mga4
 harddrake-ui-16.26.13-1.mga4
Re-running the simple test above continued sensibly. This one OK.

For the Grub part, I installed grub2 on this EFI box, which necessitated un-installing grub2-efi.
 # drakboot -boot
yields

CC: (none) => lewyssmith

[continued]
a window with a couple of basic boot choices. Accepting these and clicking 'OK' returns directly to the command prompt. But where is the error log? Nothing obvious in /var/log.
I should have mentioned that installing grub2 with urpmi gave a lot of output re found systems, ending with
"Install device isn't specified.
Usage: grub2-install [OPTION] [INSTALL_DEVICE]"
and a lot more usage O/P.
I will OK this when I find the log.

Better quickly restore grub2-efi while I can!

logs are in "journalctl SYSLOG_FACILITY=17" output
But that's a secondary target, what's important is that the crash is fixed

Update tested in MGA4 i586 Real Hardware

About the DAV, does not crash and return to the new, edit or exit diskdrake after update.
The grub-efi installs but not is an option in the MCC boot settings


The drakboot -boot ask do you wish enable autologin???

I see that is OK

In my tests MGA4-32-OK

CC: (none) => neoser10

Don't forget to add the relevant OK's in the whiteboard guys please if you're happy with it. Thanks.

Re-ran the drakboot part: installed (EFI box) grub2, invalid, which replaced grub2-efi. Running
 # drakboot --boot      [note --boot this time]
ran OK up to a certain point, with a bootloader dialogue, then crashed with a proper error dialogue window. The journel from
 # journalctl SYSLOG_FACILITY=17 | grep 'Mai 16' | grep drakboot
showed normal entries except for the last one: "Mai 16 17:00:41 localhost.localdomain drakboot[29047]: grub2-install failed:" followed by 2 drakbug lines.
OKing this.

Whiteboard: (none) => MGA4-64-OK MGA4-32-OK

Thanks guys
