Description
This test verifies that DVD.iso
image can be booted and installed from a USB stick created by a dd
command.
Setup
- You need to have a USB stick that is larger than the
DVD.iso
image.
How to test
- Convert the
DVD.iso
image to the USB stick usingdd
.- Example command is:
# dd if=Fedora-41-x86_64-DVD.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=16M
where you replace sdX by your USB stick device identifier. This will destroy all data on that disk. - A longer guide how to use this command is available at How to create and use Live USB#Using dd for a direct copy.
- Example command is:
- Boot the system from the USB stick.
- Proceed with the installation.
Expected Results
- The ISO image is converted to the USB stick without error.
- The DVD image boots into the installer without error.
- The installation finishes successfully.
- The new system initiates boot properly.
