Hi All,

Why not put those use cases that we want to support (eg. we are prepared for or otherwise are aware of) to wiki so we all can see the cases, we do not forget them, and it is easier to talk about them.

In those use cases there should be good details of hardware/bios/partition/os configuration.

Thanks,
Vesa Jääskeläinen
