A couple of days ago I got the message "Couldn't clone install floppy to the root filesystem". That got me thinking: since we don't support install floppies any more, should we change the wording to "image", since I presume it's cloning a filesystem image to the root partition. Likewise, should we continue to mention CD/DVD, and in the future have CD/DVD/Blu-ray, or should we simplify it to "media", or just say "CD"? I know it's really trivial but the less verbose the wording the more people are likely to actually read it I'd guess! -- Bruce Cranhelp
