Hallo Brian
I've just reproduced the behavior in a VM, it asks to run a package manager with every release I insert
The file cdromupgrade is not present in the usbkey I created for other purpose, nor in the usual build or iso.
Thanks
Fabio

This only ever worked with the alternate discs and now that we are no longer creating them this will not work. Was there a test case that you ran into that said this should? Thanks again!
