Today's installment of Fedora Test Day will focus on [[Changes/ArmSupportInFmw | Fedora Media Writer]]. [[Changes/FedoraMediaWriterAsPrimaryDownloadable|'''Fedora Media Writer''']], is used for creating bootable flash drives on different operating systems and architectures. The tool is the primary download option for Fedora Workstation since Fedora 25. Since the Fedora 26 cycle, support for writing ARM images has been added to Media Writer. In this test day, we aim to test creation of Fedora 28 and Fedora 29 pre-release boot media on Windows, macOS, and various Fedora releases, with a focus on creation of ARM-bootable media.

Visit the [[QA:Testcase_USB_fmw|QA Test case page]] and follow the instructions there to install the tool, write an image, and test that it boots. Ideally, try writing several different images, and running the tool on different platforms (Windows, macOS, and Fedora).

To be clear, if you write an image for booting on an Intel system and test boot it on an Intel system, enter your result as  ("Intel results"), in the profile column entering the platform you wrote the image '''from'' in the comment'. If you write an image for booting on an ARM system and test boot it on an ARM system, enter your result as  ("ARM results") in the profile column matching the platform you wrote the image '''from''' in the comment. You don't have to enter a result in every column - just test as many platforms as you can, and leave the columns for platforms you can't test blank. Test Results page can be submitted [http://testdays.fedorainfracloud.org/events/43 here ]
