Description

This test will verify that anaconda can download the requested updates.img file using a HTTP url. For help preparing an updates.img, refer to Anaconda/Updates


How to test

  1. Prepare a valid updates.img file and copy it to a httpd server accessible by your installation. See this page for image creation instructions. A good thing to change in the updates.img is the "What language would you like to use during the installation process?" text in pyanaconda/iw/language_gui.py, as this text is displayed on one of the first screens.
  2. Boot the installer while specifying the http URL for the updates image. For example: 
    inst.updates=http://rhe.fedorapeople.org/install/updates.img
  3. Proceed with installation

Expected Results

  1. Anaconda prepares the updates.img and copies its content to /run/initramfs/tmp/. Any changes you included in the updates.img file are applied
  2. Anaconda proceeds without related errors
