Description

This test validates that the installation program starts successfully when booting a system using a DVD.iso.

Setup

  1. Prepare your system for booting a DVD.iso image. This may involve writing the image to a USB key, or using dvdrecord to write to an optical disk.
  2. Check your system boot order preferences to ensure that the optical DVD drive (or USB drive) boot target is enabled.

How to test

  1. Insert the DVD.iso into the appropriate device (optical DVD drive or USB drive), and boot the system under test.

Expected Results

  1. Graphical boot menu(isolinux or syslinux) is displayed for users to select install options. If no option is selected, the installer should load after a reasonable timeout
  2. Installer boots into loader and prompts for language, keymap, and installation source
  3. Installer transitions to anaconda without error
