Re: [ros-dev] CORE-15467 - 1st stage setup freezes when the expected file is missing

<span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:12px">‌</span>Hi,<br>
<br>
There is in principle (almost) all the infrastructure to implement the Retry/Skip/Abort dialog in usetup.<br>
The freezing you encounter is however a bug I should investigate.<br>

&nbsp;
<div class="gl_quoted">
<div dir="ltr">An idea,
<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div>I don´t think its a good idea to "skip" a file during 1st stage, specially core files (in 2nd stage it might be acceptable for some device drivers, for example)</div>

<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div>So, if "cloning" the Win2k3 behavior, i would set only 2 options: retry or abort installation and reboot.</div>

<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div>what do you guys think?</div>

Setup is not a compatibility requirement in itself. The compatibility
requirement is specifically user and kernel-level API and ABI of the
running system (boot procedure is also compatible nowadays, but even
that is not required due to architecture of Windows NT).
