Description
This test will verify that anaconda can download and apply a updates.img
that is inside the remote installation source without extra input from the user. For help preparing updates.img
, see Anaconda/Updates
How to test
- Prepare a local installation source by mirroring an existing online source.
- Make the installation source accessible over one of the supported network protocols (HTTP, FTP, NFS).
- Prepare a valid
updates.img
file. See this page for image creation instructions. A good thing to change in theupdates.img
is the "What language would you like to use during the installation process?" text inpyanaconda/iw/language_gui.py
, as this text is displayed on one of the first screens. - Copy the
updates.img
into theimages/
directory of your local installation source - Boot the installer using the
inst.repo=
option at boot directing to the modified installation source where theupdates.img
was published. See Anaconda/Options for information on supported boot options. - Proceed with installation
Expected Results
- Anaconda prepares the
updates.img
and copies its content to/tmp/updates/
. Any changes you included in the updates.img file are applied - Anaconda proceeds without related errors
