Description
This test validates booting from a efidisk.img
on a system capable of supporting Features/EFI.
How to test
- From an already installed system, insert a USB key (with enough capacity to hold the
efidisk.img
image) - Locate the device entry for your USB key (for tips, see http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/42/html/Installation_Guide/Making_USB_Media-UNIX_Linux.html)
- Write the
efidisk.img
to your USB media by typing:dd if=/path/to/efidisk.img of=/dev/sdd
- Insert removable media into your test system
- Reboot the test system. If offered, but sure to select the USB device as your boot device
Expected Results
- The system should boot into the installer without error
