Description
This test validates that ISO images (CD, Live, and DVD) are small enough to fit on the corresponding media.
How to test
- Inspect the size of CD install media. The
ls -sh
command can be used to display the size of the image. - Repeat the same inspection, but for the Live media.
- Finally, inspect the size of the DVD media.
Expected Results
- The installer CD images are of a size greater than 2 MiB, and less than or equal to 700 MiB. An example using the
ls
command:# ls -sh Fedora-13-Beta-x86_64-disc*.iso
- 692M Fedora-13-Beta-x86_64-disc1.iso 694M Fedora-13-Beta-x86_64-disc4.iso
- 694M Fedora-13-Beta-x86_64-disc2.iso 693M Fedora-13-Beta-x86_64-disc5.iso
- 681M Fedora-13-Beta-x86_64-disc3.iso 150M Fedora-13-Beta-x86_64-disc6.iso
- The installer Live images are of a size greater than 2 MiB, and less than or equal to 1 GB [1]. An example using the
ls
command (with the--si
option for SI units):# ls -sh --si F13-Beta-x86_64-Live.iso
- 987M F13-Beta-x86_64-Live.iso
- The installer DVD images are of a size greater than 2 MiB, and less than or equal to 4.7 GB. An example using the
ls
command (with the--si
option):# ls -sh --si Fedora-13-Beta-x86_64-DVD.iso
- 3.8G Fedora-13-Beta-x86_64-DVD.iso
- ↑ 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.
