Description
This test will verify that anaconda can download the requested updates.img file using a HTTP url. For help preparing an updates.img, refer to Anaconda/Updates
How to test
- Prepare a valid kickstart file and copy to a httpd server accessible by your installation
- A suggested approach is to create a dummy updates.img with a empty file
- mkdir /tmp/updates
- dd if=/dev/zero of=updates.img bs=1k count=1440
- mke2fs updates.img
- mount -o loop updates.img /tmp/updates
- touch /tmp/updates/TESTING123
- umount /tmp/updates
- Boot the installer while specifying the http URL for the updates image. For example
updates=http://server/path/to/updates.img - Proceed with installation
Expected Results
- Anaconda prepares the
updates.imgand copies it's content to/tmp/updates/ - Anaconda proceeds to stage2 without error
