Description
This install verifies that installing Fedora alongside an existing Windows installation works correctly.
Setup
- Prepare a system with a Windows installation, and some free disk space on the same disk as the Windows installation
How to test
- Boot the installer using any available means
- Choose an appropriate installation source, such as NFS or HTTP
- Choose to install a bootloader to the MBR of the disk which will have Windows and Fedora on it (this should be the default)
- Choose the 'Use free space' partitioning method
- Proceed with installation
Expected Results
- Fedora should be installed in the available free space with a reasonable partition layout
- The Windows partition should not be touched
- A bootloader should be installed and configured such that, on boot of the system, you are presented with a menu which allows you to choose between booting Fedora with any installed kernel, or booting Windows
- The Fedora and Windows options should each correctly trigger the boot of the respective operating systems
