Criteria revision proposal: Expected installed system boot behavior (Alpha)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As per https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-qa/ticket/391 and the
Retrospective, we really need to adjust the "Expected installed system
boot behavior" criteria for the new world of user creation in anaconda
and initial-setup and gnome-initial-setup replacing firstboot.

After some thought, I propose that the most straightforward way to do
this is with the following changes to the Alpha criteria. Reference this
section:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_20_Alpha_Release_Criteria#Expected_installed_system_boot_behavior

We could replace the first two "Expected installed system boot
behaviour" criteria with these:

"A working mechanism to create a user account must be clearly presented
during installation and/or first boot of the installed system.

A system installed with a release-blocking desktop must boot to a log in
screen where it is possible to log in to a working desktop using a user
account created during installation or a 'first boot' utility."

The third criterion, "A system installed without a graphical package set
must boot to a state where it is possible to log in through at least one
of the default virtual consoles.", remains unchanged.

We add one more 'footnote':

"On the first boot after installation, a utility for creating user
accounts and other configuration may run prior to a log in screen
appearing."

I think that covers the changed situation and does not create any
unrealistic requirements. Any thoughts, comments, improvements,
questions etc? Thanks!
