That criterion was written with specific reference to the oldUI interface: the options it lists are the various autopart options oldUI had. We therefore agreed that it's not appropriate for newUI, which has a different interface. We've been drafting a revised criterion on this list, and we agreed for 18 Alpha blocker review purposes to use the gist of the new criterion, which is that the sole autopart option 18 Alpha's anaconda offers (use entire disk(s)) must work. I hoped to have the finished version of the criterion in place on the official page by now (it's my draft) but didn't quite get around to it yet, apologies. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
