What to test?[edit]

Today's installment of Fedora Test Day will revisit:

Features/AnacondaStorageRewrite

Who's available[edit]

The following cast of characters will be available for testing, workarounds, bug fixes, and general discussion ...

Development
- Chris Lumens
- Dave Lehman
Quality Assurance
- James Laska

What's needed to test[edit]

Required for testing:

Rawhide or Fedora 11 Beta fully updated.
A Red Hat Bugzilla account.

Optional but recommended for testing:

FAS Account - you can create an account in 3 minutes if you don't have one. This account lets you make non-anonymous contributions to the Fedora wiki.
Your hardware profile uploaded to Smolt according to these instructions

Rawhide is raw
Rawhide is a development branch of Fedora. While changes to Fedora post-beta are limited, it is advised you back up your data before participating.

How to test?[edit]

Update your machine[edit]

See the instructions on the Rawhide page on the various ways in which you can install or update to Rawhide. Or:

Live Image[edit]

Optionally, you may download a rawhide live image for your architecture. Tips on using a live image are available at FedoraLiveCD.

Architecture	MD5SUM
i386	`8b80b540016d06a292438d9787ec5c25`
x86_64	`c3582375fda8c0103a77e6a1c482e56a`

Latest syslinux package?
Creating a LiveUSB of this rawhide image requires the latest version of syslinux, which is currently available in Rawhide and in the latest Windows liveusb-creator. Users of F10 and below can upgrade to the latest syslinux package using

yum --enablerepo=rawhide update syslinux

.

Test[edit]

The following test cases are designed to stress the installer auto-partitioning:

The following test cases validate different software raid scenarios:

Got updates?
All testing should be performed using a Anaconda/Updates. To benefit from test day fixes, you must provide the following boot argument:

updates=http://clumens.fedorapeople.org/updates.img

Report your results[edit]

If you experience any unexpected outcomes or failures while executing any of the tests, report a bug to Bugzilla. If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report, just ask on IRC and we will help you.
Once you have completed the tests, add your results to the Results table below.
- The first column should be your name with a link to your User page in the Wiki if you have one, typically in the format [[User:FasName]]
- The second should be a link to your Smolt hardware profile (see #What.27s_needed_to_test for details)
- For each test case, refer to the test case instructions for details
- Finally, the last column is available for any general comments or concerns

Results[edit]

Please record autopart test results in the table below:

Messerting	HW	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	Fedora-11-Snap1-x86_64-Live-KDE on Asus P5E-VM HDMI. Tried Custom Layout, but hit bz 495582 when I tried to keep my /home and reformat swap and "/". That left the two latter empty/uninitialized, so my second attempt resulted in bz 495584 (-> bz 495288). I then booted the live cd again, downloaded and update anaconda-11.5.0.44-1 from koji, and tried again and hit bz 495665.
