Description
This test case tests whether encryption can be successfully used during a guided partitioning-based system installation using the webui-based installer.
Setup
- Prepare a test system with a working, supported storage device of sufficient size for a Fedora install, and a Fedora installation medium that uses the webui-based installer - e.g. Fedora Workstation live, on Fedora 42 and above.
How to test
- Boot the webui-based installer using any available means, e.g. Fedora Workstation live on Fedora 42+.
- Proceed to the installer's "Installation method" screen, making sensible choices.
- Ensure the target device you prepared is selected as the "Destination".
- Ensure the "Use entire disk" option is selected, and click "Next".
- On the Storage Configuration screen, select the option to encrypt the installation ("Encrypt my data") and click Next.
- Complete the installation process, making sensible selections for all other installer options.
- Boot the installed system.
- After installation is complete, perform QA:Testcase_base_startup to ensure the installed system boots correctly with the encrypted partition.
Expected Results
- The expected partition layout should be created on the target device(s).
- The install process should complete successfully and the installed system should boot as expected.
- The system should prompt for the encryption passphrase early in the boot process, and successfully unlock the encrypted partitions and complete boot only if the correct passphrase is entered.
