Failure to create main directory
If you enter in a
bogus main directory (eg, F: on a machine without F:) in the initial setup
screen, the ballot station will prompt to insert election media but you never
can. The system is then in an unrecoverable state. The drive should
be checked at setup time, not startup. Furthermore, you should not require
election media to change setup parameters, like serial
number.
Related issue to
slip in. The system does behave a little better if you enter a bogus smart
card reader port in that it puts you back to the setup screen. But why let
them out of the setup screen with a bogus port name in the first place. It
should be a drop-down list.
