| |description=This test verifies upgrading a Fedora system from the current stable release ({{FedoraVersion|long}}) to the development release (Rawhide/{{FedoraVersion|long|next}}) using [[PreUpgrade]]. Verification will confirm that {{command||preupgrade}} is able to detect and recover from 2 low disk space conditions:
| |
| # Insufficient disk space on {{filename|/boot}} partition for the installer files {{filename|vmlinuz}}, {{filename|initrd.img}} and {{filename|install.img}}
| |
| # Insufficient disk space on {{filename|/boot}} partition for the installer file {{filename|install.img}}
| |
| {{admon/note|Note|This test requires you to have a wired connection to the internet during the install.}}
| |
| |actions=
| |
| # Perform an installation of the current stable release (e.g. {{FedoraVersion|long}}) with default partitioning (200MB for {{filename|/boot}}).
| |
| # Create a file that takes up enough space that there is insufficient remaining disk space for preupgrade to download kernel and initrd.img. That means we need to fill up /boot. Here's how to do that as root:
| |
| #:<pre>
| |
| #: # dd if=/dev/zero of=/boot/preupgrade_filler bs=1M count=170
| |
| #:</pre>
| |
| # Install the newest available version of {{package|preupgrade}}.
| |
| # Run {{command|preupgrade}} from a command prompt or the ''Run Application'' dialog. Provide the requested password for root authorization.
| |
| # On the ''Choose desired release'' screen, enable ''unstable test releases''.
| |
| # Choose ''Rawhide'' from the list of available upgrade targets, then click ''Apply''.
| |
| # While downloading, preupgrade should warn that it '''failed''' to download installer data. Click ''quit'' for that.
| |
| # Next, change the amount of available disk space on the {{filename|/boot}} partition by reducing the size of the {{filename|/boot/preupgrade_filler}} file to 100MB. This should leave sufficient room for preupgrade to download the {{filename|kernel}} and {{filename|initrd.img}} but not enough room to download {{filename|install.img}}. Once again, use the {{command|dd}} command:
| |
| #:<pre>
| |
| #: # dd if=/dev/zero of=/boot/preupgrade_filler bs=1M count=100
| |
| #:</pre>
| |
| # Re-run {{command|preupgrade}}. When prompted, click ''Yes'' to resume your upgrade.
| |
| # While downloading, preupgrade should warn that there wasn't enough space to download install.img but it can be downloaded after reboot if you have a wired network connection. Click ''continue'' for that.
| |
| # When preupgrade is done don't reboot immediately. Instead, remove the /boot/preupgrade_filler file and make sure your computer is connected to the network via an ethernet cable.
| |
| #:<pre>
| |
| #: # rm /boot/preupgrade_filler
| |
| #:</pre>
| |
| # Click ''reboot''.
| |
| |results=
| |
| # At first time, the preupgrade utility will fail to download installer data and be unable to proceed.
| |
| # At second time, preupgrade will offer to resume the previous upgrade attempt. Additionally, the user is prompted with a warning indicating ''Not enough space to download install.img''. Preupgrade will allow the update to continue.
| |
| # After reboot, the system should boot into the installer, connect to the internet and begin downloading the stage2 installer image.
| |
| # The system should be upgraded to new version without error.
| |
| # After upgrade, a user must be able to:
| |
| ## Login to the desktop
| |
| ## Activate a network connection
| |
| ## The default terminal and web browsers must start successfully
