What to test?

Today's installment of Fedora Test Day will focus on Sugar on a Stick.

Who's available

• Development - Sebastian Dziallas
• Random stuff - Peter Robinson
• QA + Test case system management Mel Chua
• add yourself here

Prerequisite for Test Day

• a USB Key (at least 2 GB)
• the SoaS v2 Beta
• some free space on your HD (optional)

How to test?

• Download the following two files:
  • http://download.sugarlabs.org/soas/releases/livecd-iso-to-disk.sh
  • http://download.sugarlabs.org/soas/releases/soas-2-beta.iso
• Verify by running sha1sum on the soas-2-beta.iso file that the downloaded version matches the published one:

  6b2a235251d545013c020ded05a8336eceff8114  soas-2-beta.iso

• Become root in a terminal and run:

  chmod a+x ./livecd-iso-to-disk.sh

• Execute the following command - as root - where xxx is the allocated size for your home partition and the persistant overlay and the XX the device for your USB key (like sdb1). This command will wipe your USB key! If you prefer not doing so, please remove --format and --reset-mbr.

  ./livecd-iso-to-disk.sh --unencrypted-home --home-size-mb xxx --overlay-size-mb xxx --format --reset-mbr ./soas-2-beta.iso /dev/sdXX

More general testing instructions will be directly provided in the new semantic infrastructure.

Test Cases & Results
