| | 67 | '''Re: External disk device ID order''' |
| | 68 | [[BR]] |
| | 69 | The above feedback (comment:10 in reply to: ↑ 9) is biased towards interactive restore. To accomodate also doing an unattended (nuke) restore it might be worth thinking about the following. |
| | 70 | |
| | 71 | '''Boot screen message'''[[BR]] |
| | 72 | "Restoring from a local external disk |
| | 73 | * Interactively: do not connect the disk until the boot-up has finished |
| | 74 | * Automatically: connect the disk now and specify it as a boot parameter e.g. sdXX nuke" |
| | 75 | |
| | 76 | ALTERNATIVE MESSAGES |
| | 77 | |
| | 78 | "Restoring from a local external disk |
| | 79 | * Interactively: do not connect the disk until prompted (+++note to Bruno) |
| | 80 | * Automatically: connect the disk now and specify it as a boot parameter e.g. sdXX nuke" |
| | 81 | |
| | 82 | +++Issue the prompt at the 2nd menu (headed "Read from:"). When the user selects "Hard disk" add a screen that prompts for the external disk to be connected. Perhaps as message like: "Connect the external disk now. Wait 10 seconds for before proceeding to allow the system to find it" |
| | 83 | |
| | 84 | My preference is strongly for the alternative pair of messages as they are much more obvious and therefore more user friendly. |

| | 88 | '''Re: Automatically supplying the path to the ISO directory''' |
| | 89 | |
| | 90 | I haven't tested the following. |
| | 91 | |
| | 92 | If the bootcode "nuke" is used, does Mondrestore check that the backup ISO is found before "nuking" the disk? If so, it is another reason for automatically using the path to ISO that exists within the Mindi ISO. |
