What to test?

This week's instalment of Fedora Test Day will focus on:

Preparing for Test Day

Depending on the speed of your connection and the time available for testing, there are several methods available for

Live Images

  1. Please download a live ISO image for your architecture:
  2. Prepare your live image by following the instructions at FedoraLiveCD
  3. Or run the dowloaded ISO image in qemu:
     su -c 'qemu -cdrom Fedora-11-Alpha-i686-Live.iso -m 512 -std-vga'

Install Media

  1. Consult the installation guide for quick start information to determine the best install method for your needs.
  2. Follow instructions for installing your system.
    • Alternatively, on an already installed system:
      1. Install snake:
        yum install snake
      2. Configure your system for installation:
        snake-install http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/test/11-Alpha/Fedora/i386/os

How to test?

DRAFT

Perhaps we should script all the changes and let the tester just run the script

su -c 'chmod +x /home/<user>/Download/Bootchart-test.sh && /home/<user>/Download/Bootchart-test.sh

Have to hear from Harald how he wants it should be something like this..

Use a live cd or make a default all install.

Open a terminal window and run:

su -c 'yum -y install bootchart'

Open /sbin/bootchartd with your favourite text editor and change line 121

From

local exit_proc="gdmgreeter gdm-binary kdm-greet kdm ldm"

To

local exit_proc="firefox"

Or open up a terminal window and run

su -c 'sed 's/gdmgreeter\ gdm-binary\ kdm-greet\ kdm\ ldm/firefox/g' File > File 

Open /etc/bootchartd.conf with your favourite text editor and change line 13

From

SAMPLE_PERIOD=0.2

To

SAMPLE_PERIOD=20

Or open up a terminal window and run

su -c 'sed 's/0.2/20/g' File > File
