The choice after pressing 'A' was removed in disks.c since revision 1.124 at Jan 15, 2001 and then it was further changed, so that there is documented 'F' with the old behavior of 'A'. Paragraphs 4, 5 and 6 in sysinstall/help/slice.hlp should be modified, so that they respect the current state and I think that the last final note should be removed at all, because the 'F' key is documented now. (The comment in disks.c: case 'F': /* Undocumented magic Dangerously Dedicated mode */ is wrong now too.) >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
