Associated release criterion
This test case is associated with the Fedora_42_Beta_Release_Criteria#self-hosting-virtualization 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 test case ensures the development release boots as a KVM guest run in the same release.
Setup
- Prepare a machine with the current development release (Fedora 42) installed
- Install
virt-manager - If you want to test your guest system using UEFI, you need to set it up first.(Note: IoT testing requires UEFI.)
How to test
- Create a virtual machine and boot the current development release in it (use
boot.iso, PXE orDVD.isoof Fedora 42). This can be accomplished using thevirt-installcommand or by using the graphical utilityvirt-manager - Hit run to boot the guest from the provided ISO disc
- Proceed with normal installation
Expected Results
- The installer successfully boots from the ISO image
- The installer is able to activate and use the virtual network device(s)
- The installer is able to activate and use the virtual storage device(s)
- The install completes successfully
- The system reboots successfully, recognizing filesystems created on the virt device(s)
