keep output constant

[Hongqing Yang]

Hi, Anaconda Developer Team,

I found on the F16 Alpha release, after the media check, there is output 'Running anaconda 16.14.6, the Fedora system installer - please wait', but in Beta RC1 release, it is removed. I use the output as the installation step label for AutoQA, it would better if we can keep it constant, or the auto install test will not work. Can you tell me if you propose to remove it definitely or not? So I can find other label for the install step. Thanks.

Nothing has changed in the code regarding printing that message.  It's
certainly not our intention to have that message disappear.

If you're looking for other text, you could use the following in
anaconda.log:

Running anaconda script %s

moving (1) to step welcome

Hi, Chris,

I also did not find the message:
   Running anaconda script %s
   moving (1) to step welcome

I only find Starting Anaconda version 16.20. I can think this is the beginning of stage2.
If it is not your intention to remove the 'Running anaconda 16.14.6, the Fedora system installer -please',
How does it disappear, Do you know which team I should contact with? Thanks.

Those messages would appear in the anaconda.log and on tty3, not on
tty1.

Can you explain anything about your environment that might help?  I'm
really at a loss to even begin explaining what could be happening here.
