RHBA-2011:1742 - firstboot bug fix update
Synopsis
firstboot bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory (none)
Topic
An updated firstboot package that fixes two bugs is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The firstboot utility runs after installation and guides the user through a series of steps that allows for easier configuration of the machine.
This update fixes the following bugs:
-
Previously, the Traditional Chinese translation (zh_TW) of the Forward button on the welcome page was different from the action mentioned in the text, on the same page, referring to this button. This update provides the corrected translation. (BZ#700283)
-
Previously, when running firstboot in Japanese locale and the user attempted to continue without setting up an account, an untranslated warning message appeared. With this update, the message is properly translated into Japanese. (BZ#700305)
All users of firstboot are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes these bugs.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
