Bug ID: 1487885
Summary: rescue mode from hard drive or moving kernel before
needed
Product: Fedora Documentation
Version: devel
Component: docs-requests
Severity: medium

both as accessed Aug. 12, 2017.
Describe the issue: Booting into rescue mode is described as being done from
media other than the hard drive. However, Fedora 26 installs the rescue kernel
onto the hard drive and doesn't mention during installation that the user
should move it to other media before a rescue is needed. So, either the rescue
kernel is usable from the hard drive (and I used it once for a test, with no
visible difference in outcome) or we should move it.
Suggestions for improvement: Either way, the documentation should be clarified
or updated for whichever possibility is applicable. If we should move the
kernel, please tell us what we should move and how to organize relevant files
on the alternative media.
