How much of Fedora 18-Alpha-TC3 netinst.iso should I expect to work?
It booted from DVD on bare metal and brought up graphics, but after that
I encountered many problems.
Media_check did not run, despite being included in the default selection
on the boot screen ("verify source...").
<Tab> did not move the focus to the next graphical button on the Choose
Language screen.
There was no progress indicator for Installation Source, Software Selection
(downloading repo info, checking dependencies), or Installation Destination
(examining storage devices).
The left box (Desktop) of Installation type (Base, GNOME, KDE, LXDE,
Sugar, XFCE) was unclear. Is it a radio-button list (select only one)
but without the buttons? The box abuts the left margin, and looks like
something has been cut off on the left. The right box (Addons) was
hard to track. There should be a separate list of current selections.
There should be an option to hide/display the descriptions (with the
names always displayed.) It should be possible to search by regex.
Display of dependencies should be available.
Installation Destination gave only the barest info: disk manufacturer
and model, with gross capacity. There was no connection information
(sda, sdb, ...; pci-...-scsi-...; usbN; etc.). Horizontal scrolling sucks;
my box has 5 drives, and I want to see them all at once.
Sometimes I have multiple drives of the same make and model,
so I need to see the serial numbers, too.
I want to see the volume label type (MSDOS, GPT, Apple, ...),
plus the partitions, size, label, filesystem type, used space,
unused space, last mount point: everything that gparted displays.
There was no message "No LVM2 structures were found" which is
required in order to increase my confidence and help detect errors.
Then the installer crashed, and the bug report via network to bugzilla
was incomplete because "you do not have permission to access the file".
[Bug 848994] New: IndexError: list index out of range
