Description
This test validates that ISO images (CD, netinst, Live, and DVD) are small enough to fit on the corresponding media.
How to test
- Inspect the size of CD and netinst install media. The
du -bcommand can be used to display the sizes of the images in bytes:$ du -b Fedora-14-Alpha-x86_64-netinst.iso 230686720 Fedora-14-Alpha-x86_64-netinst.iso
- Repeat the same inspection, but for the Live media.
- Finally, inspect the size of the DVD media.
Check size over HTTP
If you need to check ISO size without downloading the file, you can do that also remotely:
If you need to check ISO size without downloading the file, you can do that also remotely:
$ curl -sI http://server/image.iso | grep Content-Length
Expected Results
- The size of CD and netinst images is less than or equal to 734,003,200 (700 MiB).
- The size of Live images is less than or equal to 1,000,000,000 (1 GB) [1].
- The size of DVD images is less than or equal to 4,700,000,000 (4.7 GB).
- ↑ As of Fedora 13, live media is intended for USB media keys and not for CD images. For more details on this change, see Features/DesktopLiveImageTarget.
