timeout should be visible

[atrent]

if boot timeout is enabled a "countdown timer" should be visible in the TUI

[shreyanshk]

A 'countdown timer' is visible. Unless it is disabled, of course.
Are you on the recent version of BootTorrent? I pushed this update today.

[atrent]

no sign of countdown, I even re-made the ph1 assets...
can you post a screenshot?

[shreyanshk]

Please check the VirtualBox window.

[atrent]

mine is different, no "Booting..." at top of screen and only "ctrl-c" at the bottom

[shreyanshk]

"ctrl-c" at the bottom that means it's an old version. as I have changed the shortcut.
Can you use git log to check if this commit is there? (84b1a02)

I am checking this commit as we speak and I have pushed a new binary file.
I made it double sure that repo has the correct file by deleting this file and then git checkout boottorrent/assets/ph1/diff.gz it.

I have the commit but still no timer, should I recreate something special?

No, you shouldn't have to.

Try this:
Remove previous installation pip uninstall boottorrent and then install from new sources. (use sudo or virtualenv if you've previously used that to install)

[atrent]

relaunching 'python3 setup.py install' (how I originally installed) recreated everything and now at least it boots with the timer

please add a warning in the doc

[shreyanshk]

I've added instructions (70630c1). Is it better?

Also, I suggest you to stop using 'python setup.py install'. Please look at updated install instructions in the guide.

[atrent]

I'll do a clean install
