Thwak, are you talking about the Setup Options window, which contains the following text?
Code: Select all
Edit the config file to change settings.
Edit the excludes file to choose which files/directories will not be copied to the snapshot.
Cancel to skip this step.
Exit to exit the program." \
     --checklist --column "Choose" --column "Num" --column "Option" \
     --width=590 --height=330  \
  FALSE 01 "Edit $configfile" \
  FALSE 02 "Edit and use custom excludes file." \
  FALSE 03 "Restore excludes file to defaults." \
  FALSE 04 "Don't re-copy saved filesystem copy. (Experimental)" \
  FALSE xx "Exit")

The only one of those options that might need more explanation is the experimental one, and I haven't experimented with it, so I'm not sure what to say about it.

Are you seeing this window a second time??? When?

That particular window is a checkbox, so yes, you can check more than one option. (A quick test with the mouse will show you it's not a radiolist.) But it would not make sense to edit the excludes and restore the default excludes in the same run. You'd lose your edits when the defaults were restored. I don't think I put a test in to prevent that.

There are progress bars that come up during the system copy, squashing and making the iso. Where else do you think one is needed?
