Well, we definitely want some form of shell support from the frontend (that is also usable with rescue mode) for Lenny. I have no idea what the preferred technical solution is. It is definitely too late to implement anything for Etch. > >>Finally, should this bug be merged with 339855 (cc'ed)? > > > > Sounds reasonable. > > I see 408437 has a patch, so letting frans decide whether to do this or > not. This bug report is about rescue failing, which I've "solved" in rescue mode by no longer offering the "start a shell" options. So, this BR should _not_ be merged as it will be closed when rescue is uploaded. The separate issue of "please make it possible to use a shell inside g-i" remains open. When that is solved, shell support in rescue mode should be activated again.
