| = Anaconda Options =
| | The boot-options documentation is now part of the Anaconda source repository. This allows for us to maintain multiple versions of the documentation, matching up with various releases of Anaconda. Unfortunately, it also means all your old links are dead, the links to specific sections are rendered differently than the wiki. You will have to update this manually. |
| <code>allowwireless</code>
| |
|
| |
|
| Experimental option to allow use of wireless networking adapters in the loader.
| | The latest version of the documentation is always at [https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/blob/master/docs/boot-options.rst anaconda on github], and the rendered document can be found in [https://rhinstaller.github.io/anaconda/boot-options.html the Anaconda documentation] |
