In the name of release-early-release-often, here is an untested patch to
livecd-tools mayflower script, which I believe adds support for rebootless
installation.
A proof of concept rebootless installer should hopefully be forthcoming in a day
or so, and an anaconda based one in a week or so.
Note, that the prior patch I had, was actually missing a --force flag on the
mdadm build command. But don't worry, mdadm is out of the picture since it's
--grow feature wouldn't work for me. This patch is far superior, and is a
successful implementation of the theoretical workaround #4.
I leave it as an excercise for the reader how to perform a rebootless
installation manually ;)
