Description

A complete installation using the FTP (non-anonymous) network installation protocol.


How to test

  1. Boot anaconda using any available means
  2. When prompted, provide the server and path of a valid FTP installation source
  3. Include a valid username and password into the FTP URL using the form
    ftp://USER:PASS@some.server/path/to/install

A valid username?
Unless you are an administrator of the FTP server, you may not have a list of valid users and passwords. Additionally, sending a password plain/text may be a security risk depending on your network setup. One option is to provide a username of anonymous with a password of email. The resulting URL would be in the form of
ftp://anonymous:email@some.server/path/to/install
. This may seem unintuitive, but this will still exercise anaconda's ability to properly parse user input and send the information to the requested FTP server.

Expected Results

  1. Anaconda moves to stage2 using ftp images
  2. Anaconda completes successfully
  3. System boots successfully
