Description
This test verifies installation using the HTTP(or FTP)-based install repository works by askmethod. See Anaconda/Options for information on supported boot options.
How to test
- Boot the installer using any available means (
netinst.iso, pxeboot images orDVD.iso) - Direct anaconda to use HTTP(or FTP) as the installation type by adding the boot command:
askmethod - Choose On the network as Installation method when prompted.
- Provide a HTTP(or FTP) server and path to the installation tree
- Proceed with installation
Expected Results
- Anaconda uses the install repository from the HTTP(or FTP) server provided.
- Install completes successfully
- Package errors (install.log) should not occur
- System boots successfully
