efidisk.imgimage) - Locate the device entry for your USB key (for tips, see http://docs.fedoraproject.org/install-guide/f10/en_US/sn-making-media.html#id3110774)
- Write the
efidisk.imgto your USB media by typing:dd if=/path/to/efidisk.img of=/dev/sdd
- Insert removable media into your test system
- Reboot the test system. If offered, but sure to select the USB device as your boot device
Expected Results
- The system should boot into the installer without error
