F21PPC Install Results

Instructions

This is a pending draft for ppc64/ppc64le secondary architectures. Voluntarily keep all tests from template primary page to ease results comparison. Still need to identify with background grey color the unsupported tests.

This page tracks test results against the Fedora 21 build. Test results against other Fedora 21 milestones can be found at <a href="/wiki/Category:Fedora_21_Test_Results" title="Category:Fedora 21 Test Results">Category:Fedora_21_Test_Results</a>. The explanation of test case priority is available in <a href="/wiki/QA:Release_validation_test_plan#anchor" title="QA:Release validation test plan">the release validation test plan</a>.

What To Test

• <a class="external text" href="https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/stage">Download the required ISO images</a> for the candidate build under test. Some tests must be run against particular Products or images - for example, the <a href="#Default_boot_and_install">#Default boot and install</a> tests. If no particular product or image is specified either in this page or the test case page, you can use any appropriate image. For example, you can run most of the <a href="#General_Tests">#General Tests</a> with the Workstation live image, or either of the Server install images.
• <a href="/wiki/Delta_ISOs" title="Delta ISOs">Delta_ISOs</a> for install images are available <a class="external text" href="http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/stage/deltaisos/">here</a>. If you have the Server offline install image for the previous TC/RC (or in the case of Alpha TC1, the previous stable release), you can generate the current install image with greatly reduced download size.

Who's available

Bare metal testing required
Running these tests in a virtualized environment is valuable, but the test must pass on bare metal using a physical install medium for each release-blocking image in each test environment at least for the final release candidate image (i.e. the released image) for each milestone.

In all of these tests, the test case used is <a href="/wiki/QA:Testcase_Boot_default_install" title="QA:Testcase Boot default install">QA:Testcase_Boot_default_install</a>. That is where the links point. The same test needs to be run for multiple images and target platforms. Note that the non-installer-based ARM disk images are covered by the later <a href="#ARM_disk_images">#ARM disk images</a> section.
