Description
This test verifies that installing using an NFS installation repository that contains the DVD.iso
by askmethod
boot option works. See Anaconda/Options for information on supported boot options.
Setup
- Set up a NFS server
- Copy the installation
DVD.iso
image into the server directory.
How to test
- Boot the installer using any available means (
netinst.iso
, pxeboot images orDVD.iso
) - Direct anaconda to use NFS as the installation type by adding the boot command:
askmethod
and choosing NFS directory as Installation method when prompted - Provide the hostname or IP address of the server and the path where your
DVD.iso
image is stored. Do not enter the ISO name itself as part of the path - Proceed with installation
Expected Results
- Anaconda uses the install repository from the NFS server provided
- Install completes successfully
- Package errors (install.log) should not occur
- System boots successfully
