#3941 closed bug (fixed)

"Install anyways"

Reported by: bbjimmy Owned by: korli
Priority: normal Milestone: R1
Component: Applications/Installer Version: R1/pre-alpha1
Keywords: Cc:
Blocked By: Blocking:
Platform: All

Description

When installing onto a bfs partition that has data on it, the installer opens an alert panel warning that there is data on the partition with buttons labeled "Install anyways" or "cancel"

Anyways is not proper English ... see http://grammartips.homestead.com/anyway.html

"This is going to be short and simple.

Do not say or write "anyways"--not ever. The word is "anyway."

The form "anyways" is found in some dialects in the United States, but it is not standard English, and it should never be used in any situation where you want to be considered reasonably well educated.

That's all there is to it. "

Thanks a lot for noticing! Fixed in hrev30805. I guess I may have learned English in one of those areas in the US where they speak those dialects... :-}
