https://tails.boum.org/doc/first_steps/startup_options/index.en.html#index2h1 should be rewritten with the new interface in mind.

A new screenshot might be nice.

https://tails.boum.org/blueprint/TailsGreeter/design/ should maybe be updated as well.

I’m going to merge the new Greeter into feature/stretch, so this will become a blocker for Tails 3.0.

(There was some confusion and bits about the code integration were discussed on Feature #11949, that was initially for the end-user doc bits only.)

The integration code was written, but merging it is blocked by the Feature #11949 doc subtask.

Actually I’ve tested it now (by patching a running Tails session before logging in) and it works just fine, so I’ve merged into greeter:feature/stretch, but…

… I didn’t build and upload a new package, so it’s likely this change won’t be introduced in any Tails build until 3.0~rc1.

Alan, can you make sure that the integration between our new doc and your UI is working fine now?

Alan has been unresponsive for 1.5 months, and I need him for stuff he is more needed, so I’ll play it safe and put this on anonym’s plate instead.

I’ll have to build a new Greeter package for Bug #12364 so I can test these (merged but not released yet) changes while I’m at it.

I have built and uploaded a new package (Bug #12553). But I see some bugs:

• the sidebar and banner are not hidden, while commit 7f3eb6a784eec7c7ce20da735551ad5a74d8784e says it’s been taken care of;
• links to anchors like doc/first_steps/startup_options.en.html#locale don’t work: they point to the top of the page.

So I’m confused, as anonym said he had tested this and it worked fine. Did I miss something? If you did, and I didn’t, please reassign to alan as “dev needed” as this doesn’t seem to be quite ready. Still, it’s probably better than nothing, so it should be merged for 3.0~rc1 as part of Bug #12553.

I remember that this definitely worked.

I’m less sure about whether I tested this, but I would assume I did => I would have noticed if it was broken.

I don’t think I missed anything — I don’t see how my successful test results could have happened by chance when I was testing this.

OK, I’ll double-check that the ISO I was testing has the code I believe it has.

I can’t reproduce these bugs anymore. Possibly I wasn’t testing the right thing.
