Description
A complete installation started from booting as a virtual guest where the virtual host is running the previous stable release. Get started with virtualization, please see Getting_started_with_virtualization.
Setup
- Perform a default installation of the previous stable release (e.g. Fedora 40)
How to test
- On the installed system, create a VM and connect the VM's CDROM to ISO image of the current release (
boot.iso, PXE orDVD.isoof Fedora 41) - Hit run to boot the VM from CDROM
Expected Results
- Graphical boot menu is displayed for users to select install options. Navigating the menu and selecting entries must work. If no option is selected, the installer should load after a reasonable timeout
- Installer boots into loader and prompts for language, keymap
- Installer transitions to anaconda without error
