Associated release criterion
This test case is associated with the Basic_Release_Criteria#remote-package-sources release criterion. If you are doing release validation testing, a failure of this test case may be a breach of that release criterion. If so, please file a bug and nominate it as blocking the appropriate milestone, using the blocker bug nomination page.

Description
This is to verify that Anaconda's inst.repo boot option works together with an HTTP/HTTPS repository.
Setup
- Prepare any non-live media for booting the installer (anything except
Live.iso). - Pick a mirror URL from the list of available mirrors. For example here's a list of Fedora 42 x86_64 mirrors. The top ones should be closest to you (and possibly fastest).
- Make sure the repository architecture matches the architecture of your installer media.
- You can also use your own install repository, if you have one.
How to test
- Before booting the installer, specify a target HTTP/HTTPS repository (selected in previous step) by adding a following boot option:
inst.repo=URL
- If proxy is needed, add it as another option:
proxy=[protocol://][username[:password]@]host[:port]
- Example:
inst.repo=https://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/development/42/x86_64/os/
- If proxy is needed, add it as another option:
- Proceed with installation.
Expected Results
- The installer auto-selects requested HTTP/HTTPS repository as the installation source in its GUI
- The requested repository is used to download and install required packages. This can be checked by inspecting
/tmp/packaging.log. Example output:09:34:37,295 DEBUG packaging: adding yum repo anaconda with baseurl https://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/development/42/x86_64/os/ and mirrorlist None 09:34:37,313 DEBUG packaging: disabling repo fedora 09:34:37,313 DEBUG packaging: disabling repo updates-testing 09:34:37,314 DEBUG packaging: disabling repo updates
- The installation completes and the new system initiates boot properly
