Installer should be able to use the DVD local package source options, but this is caused
by the way LITD writes the image to the USB stick.
I propose this as a Alpha verification testcase.
---------------------------
= Description =
This test verifies that Fedora DVD Image can be booted & installed from USB stick
There are more methods to create the DVD.iso USB stick, this test covers
Livecd-iso-to-disk.
== Setup ==
* Prepare the DVD ISO image and USB stick.
* Copy the DVD.iso to the USB stick using Livecd-iso-to-disk. [3]
== How to test ==
* Insert the USB stick containing DVD.iso, and boot the system under test
* Proceed with the installation the usual way.
== 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
* Installer should be able to use the DVD local package source options
We could make this a bit clearer - something like 'the installer should
not require you to configure a package repository, it should be able to
install using the packages present on the USB stick'.
* ??? Installer does not offer the USB stick as a target for
bootloader and/or partitioning
We could probably add bits to the 'how to test' section for this,
something like. For instance, ask the user to boot the installed system
without the USB stick plugged in, to ensure the bootloader was installed
to the hard disk, not the USB stick.
