Greetings.

I thought I would see if there's any interest in adding a critera /
tests for boot.fedoraproject.org and adding it as a supported/tested
install method for f19.

I think it's pretty nifty and could be more used if we tested it to
make sure it works and advertised it a bit more.

I'd imagine it would be similar to PXE tests though you wouldn't need
a
local pxe server. Each of the various images would need to be tested.

Thoughts?

We can create an optional test case for that.

Do you think this is something we should block our release on (i.e.
creating a release criteria for it)?

I tried BFO a few times and I've found it heavily outdated every time
(including today) so I wasn't particularly thrilled about it.

Also, I'm not fully sure who should benefit from it. If you need to
install Fedora, you do it once in a long time, and there's no problem
to download ISO and boot it. If you install Fedora often (e.g. you're
QA), booting from the Internet every time is a no-go, not until it's
as fast as your USB flash drive.


I would like a "BFO-Lite" install ie something small, light and fast to install a minimal system with sshd (not even X or at least just xdm+twm). I currently install (usually) from a Live CD/USB but it would be nice to have something that didn't need repeated downloading.

Regards,

Phil.
