{{QA/Test_Case
 
|description=This case tests upgrading a Fedora system from the current stable release ({{FedoraVersion|long}}) to the development release (Rawhide/{{FedoraVersion|long|next}}) using [[PreUpgrade]].
{{admon/note|Note|This test requires you to have a wired connection to the internet during the install.}}
|actions=
# Perform an installation of the stable release (e.g. {{FedoraVersion|long}}) with default partitioning (200MB for <code>/boot</code>).
# Create a file that takes up enough space that preupgrade decides it cannot install stage2 now. For the example filesystem, that means we need to fill up 100MB.  Here's how to do that as root:
#:<pre>
#: # dd if=/dev/zero of=/boot/preupgrade_filler bs=1M count=100
#:</pre>
# Install the newest available version of {{package|preupgrade}}.
# Run <code>preupgrade</code> from a command prompt or the ''Run Application'' dialog. Provide the requested password for root authorization.
# On the "Choose desired release" screen, enable "unstable test releases".
# Choose ''Rawhide'' from the list of available upgrade targets, then click ''Apply''.
# Before downloading packages, preupgrade should warn that there wasn't enough room to download part of the installer but it can download it after reboot if you have a wired connection to the network. Click ''continue'' for that.
#:<pre>
#: # rm /boot/preupgrade_filler
#:</pre>
# Click ''reboot''.
# The computer should boot into the installer, connect to the internet via the ethernet cable and start downloading the stage2 installer image.  Then it should continue upgrading as normal.
|results=
# The preupgrade utility will run to completion, without error.
# The users are prompted with a ''low disk-space to download'' warning.
# The computer should boot into the installer, connect to the internet via the ethernet cable and start downloading the stage2 installer image. 
# The system should be upgraded to new version without error.
# The opened terminal, file browser, or other system applications should display and work correctly.
