Description

This test case ensures dual booting f33 with btrfs works as expected

Setup

  1. Install Fedora 33 with btrfs layout using Automatic partitioning
  2. Reboot
  3. Finish the Gnome Initial Setup
  4. Issue init 0 or shutdown to close
  5. Grab a boot/live WS iso

How to test

  1. Boot the second Fedora 33 installer, make sensible choices
  2. In Installation Destination, click Custom under Storage Configuration
  3. Locate the previous Fedora installation, click on it to reveal existing mount points for reuse
  4. Select /boot/efi or BIOS Boot mount point, on the right hand side at the top, find Mount Point field, type in /boot/efi, click Update Settings button.
  5. Select /boot mount point, on the right hand side at the top, find Mount Point field, type in /boot, do not check the Reformat box, click Update Settings button.
  6. Select /home mount point, on the right-hand side at the top, find Mount Point field, type in /home, click Update Settings button.
  7. Click + button to create a new / mount point (this is required to be a new subvolume, reformat will be checked, cannot be uncheck but the underlying Btrfs is not reformatted,optionally change the name of the subvolume from root00 to rootkde or rootjam or whatever it is). Click Update Settings button.
  8. Click Done
  9. Perform the installation and reboot the machine
  10. After logging in, check that your home directory or /home contains the files you created on your previous system (check their contents as well)

Expected Results

  1. The installation should continue without fail
  2. The /home directory should have your previously-created files
