Description Kamil Rytarowski 2011-10-29 03:56:58 CEST

Description of problem:
When using Mageia LiveCD with preconfigured repositories it tries to update the system (install packages into RAM). This should be foolproof.

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot a LiveCD with Mageia
2. Have preconfigured repositories - package media
3. Wait a little bit

Proposal fix
Put this one-liner somewhere:

use File::Slurp; read_file('/proc/cmdline')=~/cdrom/ and die "booted from cdrom, no updates.";

Should actually be disabled by draklive like other stuff

Pinging, because nothing has happened with this report for more than 3 months, it still has the status NEW or REOPENED

Setting version to cauldron because an existing live CD can't get fixed

autostart is set to false in /home/live/.Mgaonline/mgaonline, so I guess it's fixed (pre-beta3)

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
