Description

This install verifies that installing using an NFS installation source that contains the iso images works. See Anaconda/Options for information on supported boot options.


How to test

  1. Boot the installer using any available means
  2. Direct anaconda to use NFS as the installation type by adding the boot command: askmethod
  3. Choose NFS directory as Installation method when prompted.
  4. Provide a nfs server and path to where your CDROM or DVD iso images are stored. For example:
    nfsiso[:options]:<server>:/<path>
  5. Proceed with installation

Expected Results

  1. Anaconda uses the install source from the NFS server provided
  2. Install completes successfully
  3. Package errors (install.log) should not occur
  4. System boots successfully
