🔗 Who's available
The following cast of characters will be available for testing, workarounds, bug fixes, and general discussion ...
- Development
- Quality Assurance
🔗 What's needed to test
Required for testing:
- Rawhide or Fedora 11 Beta fully updated.
- A system capable of testing Features/EFI support
- A Red Hat Bugzilla account.
Optional but recommended for testing:

🔗 How to test?
🔗 Update your machine
See the instructions on the Rawhide page on the various ways in which you can install or update to Rawhide. Or:
🔗 Live Image
Optionally, you may download a rawhide live image for your architecture. Tips on using a live image are available at FedoraLiveCD.
| Architecture | MD5SUM |
|---|---|

Latest syslinux package?
Creating a LiveUSB of this rawhide image requires the latest version of syslinux, which is currently available in Rawhide and in the latest Windows liveusb-creator. Users of F10 and below can upgrade to the latest syslinux package using

🔗 Test
The following test cases are designed to stress the installer auto-partitioning:
- QA:Testcase Anaconda autopart_install
- QA:Testcase Anaconda autopart_(encrypted)_install
- QA:Testcase Anaconda autopart_(shrink)_install
- QA:Testcase Anaconda autopart_(use free space)_install
- QA:Testcase Anaconda autopart with dmraid
- QA:Testcase Anaconda autopart with iSCSI (no authentication)
The following test cases validate different software raid scenarios:
- QA/TestCases/PartitioningUsrOnRaid0
- QA/TestCases/PartitioningRootfsOnRaid1
- QA/TestCases/PartitioningUsrOnRaid5
- QA/TestCases/PartitioningUsrOnRaid6
- QA/TestCases/PartitioningRaid0OnLvmDevice
- QA/TestCases/PartitioningPreExistingRaidRaid
🔗 Report your results
- If you experience any unexpected outcomes or failures while executing any of the tests, report a bug to Bugzilla. If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report, just ask on IRC and we will help you.
- Once you have completed the tests, add your results to the Results table below.
- The first column should be your name with a link to your User page in the Wiki if you have one, typically in the format [[User:FasName]]
- The second should be a link to your Smolt hardware profile (see #What.27s_needed_to_test for details)
- For each test case, refer to the test case instructions for details
- Finally, the last column is available for any general comments or concerns
