Description

This test is intended to confirm that anaconda can locate and use an installation source accessible via anonymous FTP.


How to test

  1. Boot the installation program using any available means (boot.iso, CD, DVD or PXE)
    • NOTE: If using a CD, DVD or boot.iso, you must also direct the installer to use an FTP installation source by adding the askmethod boot argument.
  2. Enter a language and keymap preference
  3. When prompted, choose to perform a URL install
  4. Enter the URL to your FTP installation source. For example, you might enter ftp://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/i386/os
  5. Proceed with the installation

Expected Results

  1. Anaconda uses the images/install.img from the FTP server provided
  2. Anaconda uses the package repository from the FTP server provided
  3. Anaconda completes successfully
