However, it depends on disk encryption, which is a Beta requirement. That is a problem, if disk encryption doesn't work, you can't test the rest of the test case.

I agree with John. Yanking the encryption bit completely makes good sense. There's also the issue with using this testcase for Workstation, as you can't actually install a non-GUI package set via the normal anaconda Live GUI. [0] Also, if you use the netinst to do a text based install, you can't set up LUKS from it anyways. AIUI, kickstarts and the GUI are the only ways to encrypt a disk nowadays. [0] - Well, doing `liveinst -T` will do it for you, but it's not clear that's what the testcase wants. -- // Mike -- Fedora QA freenode: roshi http://roshi.fedorapeople.org -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
