Description
This case tests upgrading from the current stable release (Fedora 40) to the development release (Fedora 41) while skipping any updates to the existing bootloader configuration.
How to test
- Perform a default installation of the previous Fedora release (Fedora 40) and verify it works correctly
- Do a full system update
- Take a note of the bootloader configuration prior to upgrade
- Boot the Fedora 41 installer using any available means (
boot.iso, PXE orDVD.iso) - After anaconda is started successfully,select default language, keyboard, and then select Upgrade an existing installation
- Select Skip bootloader updating to upgrade
- After upgrade finished, examine bootloader configuration, compare to bootloader configuration prior to upgrade
- Make any necessary manual changes to bootloader configuration to render system bootable
- Boot and test the system
Expected Results
- The system should be upgraded to Fedora 41 version without error
- The previous bootloader configuration should be left completely untouched, even if it is now invalid (unbootable)
- After any necessary manual bootloader re-configuration to render the system bootable again, it should boot and work without problems
