Hey all,
Earlier this week, the Fedora Workstation WG discussed a ticket brought to us asking for a GUI-based rescue/recovery environment[1]. While we all agreed in principle that such a thing would be a very good thing to have, we don't really know how to achieve such a thing. Additionally, we're not really sure what the scope of things should be provided in said recovery environment and what kind of things people would expect to be able to fix in there.
So I come to y'all to ask about this and give us some feedback on the idea, how to do it, and what kinds of things you expect people to need a recovery environment for.
There are a couple of things. One important but overlooked usecase is offline repartioning. Modifing the disk partioning is imposiple on a live disk(maybe with lvm). Its nice to to have a equivalent of gparted live available for such works.
Another interesting idea is factory reset where the disk image is reset to default fedora spin installation while maintaining /home.
