Description
A complete installation using the Btrfs filesystem for system partitions, using the Cockpit storage UI from the webui-based installer. The mount point set up should be done in the Cockpit storage interface.
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. Currently, that means using the Workstation live image.
How to test
- Boot the webui-based installer using any available means. Currently, that means using the Workstation live image and selecting "Install to Disk..." at the end of the initial setup process.
- On the wizard header find the dropdown menu and click "Launch storage editor".
- In the Cockpit Storage integrated dialog, see the target disk for the installation
- Delete the device for the root mount point and re-create the subvolume and mount it on /
- Mount all remaining devices, home to /home, the boot partition to /boot and similarly any remaining custom storage.]
- Click 'Return to installation' button in the dialog footer, and review that the installer auto-detects the mount points specified earlier
- Ensure that the scenario Use configured storage is auto-selected and the device/mount point mapping is correctly shown
- Complete the installation process, making sensible selections for all other installer options.
- Boot the installed system.
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.
