({HYPERLINK "mailto:jdrowell@appwatch.com"}John D. Rowell) 20010411 21:55 GMT Changes: Boot Installer: Issue a warning when CHANGE AUTOMATIC is to be inserted. Fixed: Boot Installer: The DAC960 partition mask; Boot Loader: A password timeout security hole which allowed booting without entering a password. Its found at: http://www.appwatch.com/Linux/App/46/B/1/history.html I really don't know, but my guess is they previously inserted change automatic without the warning, and someone complained that they wanted a warning before anyone messes with their computer. The above url has an email address who would better be able to answer the why.
