How to test
- Boot the installer using any available means (CDROM, DVD, http, ftp, or nfs) with the rescue command-line parameter

- Instruct anaconda to scan your disks for existing installations
- Select "OK" to chroot into
/mnt/sysimage
for your existing installation
Expected Results
- Anaconda should prompt for language, keymap, and installation media (e.g. nfs, http, ftp, local cdrom, hard drive)
- Anaconda should find stage2 images and proceed to disk scan prompt
- Scanning your disk for existing installations must will not result in a failure
- Selecting OK will present you with a shell where you are able to see the previous installation mounted under
/mnt/sysimage
. - Additionally, you may be able to execute
chroot /mnt/sysimage /bin/bash
