Boot-Repair

On a complex system, automatically open "Advance Options" screen

Registered by c.cobb

On a system determined to be "complex" (i.e., not a simple one-disk system, or with separate /boot partition), consider automatically opening the "Advanced options" screen to give the user additional information about what might be about to happen.

Whiteboard

Hi c.cobb, thanks for your suggestion, which is interesting, but.. difficult to implement. For the moment, it's easier to pop-up an informative message when necessary (e.g. if Boot-Repair has doubts, it could pop-up "If you want to use a separate /boot partition, please use the Advanced options".)

Currently, Boot-Repair opens a Zenity window when EFI or /boot is detected, that asks the user to check the advanced options. Closing this blueprint.
