In the end the information that we had on all the web pages were basically copied versions of one another. Some of this information was outdated (NEC, eMachines, etc.). So I simplified it, checked some user guides of recent laptop for sanity check.

So please review, you can do git log -p origin/master...origin/web/8934-boot-menu-keys for example. Then I’ll merge it into master.

I have a lot of logs with your command, so I could not review it. I think that anyway we will have to improve this issue in 2016. Maybe past it here ? (I’m ok not to review it and try to improve it later).

Then try:

• `git log -p 46ac735..f583a16`
• `git diff origin/master…origin/web/8934-boot-menu-keys`

Pasting the result only would prevent you from reading my commit messages and understand the process that lead me to such result.

I’m not sure to understand your comment about 2016. Personally, I want to have this out of my way for 2016. I would be up for incremental improvements on this list but I don’t see what would require a complex rewrite (or at least I’m not volunteering to work on this).

Il failed because of .po issues (I had no time to fix) but I could read it with the web interface.

ok

Maybe the misunderstanding come from me : I was not only thinking about this list, but about the all booting issue. I feel it’s full of corner and specific cases (wich windows version, wich BIOS…).

Unfortunately, you’re not really reviewing the implementation work I did on this branch. Could you please confirm that the list I prepared looks good enough for you to get included in the Installation Assitant as to be release in December?

Sorry, I let it implicit in “I could read it with the web interface”.
Yes it’s ok.

Well, this received this time. Indeed removing “Ready for QA” or setting it as “Pass” also works.

So I merged this into master. This was the last feature branch on the Windows scenario. So it’s not fully finalized, reviewed, and all. Yoohoo!

I’ll proceed with moving this document into web/assistant and removing it from the blueprint. I won’t submit a branch for doing this as I won’t modify the content.
