QA/TestCases/InstallDualbootWindows
Description
This test verifies that installing Fedora onto a machine with a pre-existing Windows installation will result in a functioning dual-boot system.
Windows XP is the primary target, but Windows Vista and Windows 2000 should also be tested.
Steps To Reproduce
1. Start with a system with a typical, functioning Windows installation
- Partition layout: primary disk has one partition, NTFS formatted.
- If possible, just use a factory restore disk or similar
- NOTE: The Windows XP installer may crash if you have Linux installed; you may need to wipe the disk first.
1. Boot the Fedora installer by whatever means are convenient (Install DVD is nice and easy) 1. Advance to partitioning screen 1. Choose "Resize existing partition and create default layout in free space" 1. Enter a target size (for the Windows partition) that leaves at least 10GB for Fedora (recommended size) 1. Enable "Review and modify partition layout" checkbox 1. Click "Next" and review partition details 1. Advance to bootloader configuration screen and rename "Other" to "Windows" (if needed) 1. Complete the installation with whatever package set you like 1. Reboot system after installation and choose "Windows" from the GRUB menu 1. After Windows boots successfully, reboot and choose Fedora from the GRUB menu
Expected Results
1. Fedora installer should boot normally. 1. Partitioning screen should offer "Resize existing partition and create default layout in free space" 1. Choosing that option should pop up a box asking which partition to resize and the target size 1. Partition details should show a typical Fedora partition layout and an NTFS partition both on the drive 1. Bootloader configuration screen should have entries for both Fedora and "Other" 1. Fedora installation should complete normally 1. When rebooting into Windows, the system should run a disk check, which should complete without errors
- It may want to reboot again after this. Who knows? Windows looooves rebooting.
1. When rebooting back into Fedora, the system should boot normally.
