> Why is this not supported? Didn't it work before?
We certainly allowed people to do so, but I don't know that anyone here
has made a conscious decision to fully support it. There are a couple
outstanding bugs claiming different portions of it don't work. See
1256061 and related.
Personally, I think we support entirely too much stuff. We give people
a zillion different ways to boot and install, and then we have to deal
with testing and bugs from all these combinations. It's not a good use
of our time. We need to establish some limits to what we actually
support.
In this case, what's the point of booting into a full OS and then using
rescue mode to do anything? You've got something much more powerful in
that environment - all the tools used to run the system. Just use those
to fix whatever's broken.
