| | |
| == Description ==
| |
| This test verifies that installing Fedora onto a machine with a pre-existing Windows installation will result in a functioning dual-boot system.
| |
| | |
| Windows XP is the primary target, but Windows Vista and Windows 2000 should also be tested.
| |
| | |
| == Steps To Reproduce ==
| |
| | |
| 1. Start with a system with a typical, functioning Windows installation
| |
| * Partition layout: primary disk has one partition, NTFS formatted.
| |
| * If possible, just use a factory restore disk or similar
| |
| * NOTE: The Windows XP installer may crash if you have Linux installed; you may need to wipe the disk first.
| |
| 1. Boot the Fedora installer by whatever means are convenient (Install DVD is nice and easy)
| |
| 1. Advance to partitioning screen
| |
| 1. Choose "Resize existing partition and create default layout in free space"
| |
| 1. Enter a target size (for the Windows partition) that leaves at least 10GB for Fedora (recommended size)
| |
| 1. Enable "Review and modify partition layout" checkbox
| |
| 1. Click "Next" and review partition details
| |
| 1. Advance to bootloader configuration screen and rename "Other" to "Windows" (if needed)
| |
| 1. Complete the installation with whatever package set you like
| |
| 1. Reboot system after installation and choose "Windows" from the GRUB menu
| |
| 1. After Windows boots successfully, reboot and choose Fedora from the GRUB menu
| |
| | |
| == Expected Results ==
| |
| | |
| 1. Fedora installer should boot normally.
| |
| 1. Partitioning screen should offer "Resize existing partition and create default layout in free space"
| |
| 1. Choosing that option should pop up a box asking which partition to resize and the target size
| |
| 1. Partition details should show a typical Fedora partition layout and an NTFS partition both on the drive
| |
| 1. Bootloader configuration screen should have entries for both Fedora and "Other"
| |
| 1. Fedora installation should complete normally
| |
| 1. When rebooting into Windows, the system should run a disk check, which should complete without errors
| |
| * It may want to reboot again after this. Who knows? Windows looooves rebooting.
| |
| 1. When rebooting back into Fedora, the system should boot normally.
