Currently it spits out a few lines complaining aboput "empty list" and other things looking like a bug itself. When used without parameter, or wrong parameter it should show same help as shown when issuing bug --help Besides, that help could be improved by saying devices can be found by issuing fdisk -l or fdisk -l | more It could also help if it mentions which file systems it can use Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce:
actually, the wiki say the command should not need a parameter https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Triage_guide#Installer-related_bugs But I think it must be possible to control where it puts the file. If it could list choices of locations it would be great :)

It never used to require any parameters but fails like this since mga4. Pretty sure there is another bug about it somewhere too but searching for 'bug' on bugzilla is unhelpful :D
(In reply to claire robinson from comment #3) > It never used to require any parameters but fails like this since mga4. > > Pretty sure there is another bug about it somewhere too but searching for > 'bug' on bugzilla is unhelpful :D yeah, bug 12263 (tbh, I thought there was at least one more, but I can't find that one) Can this one be closed as duplicate, or do you want to keep this one for improving the help?

s/the help/bug --help/
No parameter is needed. If no removable device is provided and more than one is available, it displays a menu (modulo bug #14435 I fixed yesterday)
