== What to test? ==

Today's installment of Fedora Test Day will revisit:

* [[Features/AnacondaStorageRewrite]]

== Who's available ==

The following cast of characters will be available for testing, workarounds, bug fixes, and general discussion ...
* Development
** [[User:clumens|Chris Lumens]]
** [[User:dlehman|Dave Lehman]]
* Quality Assurance
** [[User:jlaska|James Laska]]
** [[User:liam|liam]]

== What's needed to test ==

''Required'' for testing:
* [[Releases/Rawhide|Rawhide]] or [https://fedoraproject.org/get-prerelease Fedora 11 Beta] fully updated.
* A [http://bugzilla.redhat.com Red Hat Bugzilla] account.

''Optional'' but recommended for testing:
* FAS Account - you can [https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/ create] an account in 3 minutes if you don't have one. This account lets you make non-anonymous contributions to the Fedora wiki.
* Your hardware profile uploaded to [http://www.smolts.org Smolt] according to [http://smolts.org/smolt-wiki/Main_Page#Usage these instructions]

{{admon/caution|Rawhide is ''raw''|Rawhide is a development branch of Fedora.  While changes to Fedora post-beta are limited, it is advised you back up your data before participating.}}

== How to test? ==

=== '''Update your machine''' ===

See the instructions on the [[Releases/Rawhide|Rawhide]] page on the various ways in which you can install or update to Rawhide. Or:

=== '''Live Image''' ===

Optionally, you may download a rawhide live image for your architecture. Tips on using a live image are available at [[FedoraLiveCD]].

{{admon/note|Latest ''syslinux'' package?|Creating a LiveUSB of this rawhide image requires the latest version of syslinux, which is currently available in Rawhide and in the latest Windows [http://fedorahosted.org/liveusb-creator liveusb-creator].  
Users of F10 and below can upgrade to the latest syslinux package using <pre>yum --enablerepo=rawhide update syslinux</pre>.
}}

=== Test ===

The following test cases are designed to stress the installer auto-partitioning:

* [[QA:Testcase Anaconda autopart_install]]
* [[QA:Testcase Anaconda autopart_(encrypted)_install]]
* [[QA:Testcase Anaconda autopart_(shrink)_install]]
* [[QA:Testcase Anaconda autopart_(use free space)_install]]
* [[QA:Testcase_Anaconda_partitioning_dmraid_rootfs|QA:Testcase Anaconda autopart with dmraid]]
* [[QA:Test_Plans/iSCSI_Installation_Test_plan#No_authentication|QA:Testcase Anaconda autopart with iSCSI (no authentication)]]

The following test cases validate different software raid scenarios:

* [[QA/TestCases/PartitioningUsrOnRaid0]]
* [[QA/TestCases/PartitioningRootfsOnRaid1]]
* [[QA/TestCases/PartitioningUsrOnRaid5]]
* [[QA/TestCases/PartitioningUsrOnRaid6]]
* [[QA/TestCases/PartitioningRaid0OnLvmDevice]]
* [[QA/TestCases/PartitioningPreExistingRaidRaid]]

{{admon/note|Got updates?|All testing should be performed using a [[Anaconda/Updates]].  To benefit from test day fixes, you must provide the following boot argument: <pre>updates=http://clumens.fedorapeople.org/updates.img</pre>}}

=== Report your results ===
* If you experience any unexpected outcomes or failures while executing any of the tests, report a bug to [http://bugzilla.redhat.com Bugzilla].  If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report, just ask on IRC and we will help you. 
* Once you have completed the tests, add your results to the Results table below. 
** The first column should be your name with a link to your User page in the Wiki if you have one, typically in the format <nowiki>[[User:FasName]]</nowiki>
** The second should be a link to your Smolt hardware profile (see [[#What.27s_needed_to_test]] for details)
** For each test case, refer to the test case instructions for details
** Finally, the last column is available for any general comments or concerns

== Results ==

Please record ''autopart'' test results in the table below:

| Fedora-11-Snap1-x86_64-Live-KDE on Asus P5E-VM HDMI. Tried Custom Layout, but hit [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=495582 bz 495582] when I tried to keep my /home and reformat swap and "/". That left the two latter empty/uninitialized, so my second attempt resulted in [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=495584 bz 495584] (-> [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=495288 bz 495288]). I then booted the live cd again, downloaded and update anaconda-11.5.0.44-1 from koji, and tried again and hit [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=495665 bz 495665].
