More criteria time, folks! So we managed to get the Windows multi-boot criterion revised and an OS X multi-boot criterion added, but we did not yet manage to come to a consensus on exactly what should be required for Linux multi-boot. I think Chris will re-propose his last idea and we can discuss it a bit more, but I'd like to suggest a more restricted criterion we can hopefully agree on immediately for the short term: === When installing to a system containing an existing installation of either the same Fedora release or either of the two previous releases, the installer must configure the new installation's bootloader such that it can successfully boot the existing installation. [Footnote] Typical configurations only: This criterion applies only to installations (both existing and new) using default or very common storage and bootloader configurations. [Footnote] Platforms: This criterion applies to all supported configurations described in [[Fedora_21_Alpha_Release_Criteria#Release-blocking_images_must_boot|the Alpha criteria]], but does not apply to mixed configurations, e.g. it does not require that a UEFI native installation of one Fedora release be able to configure its bootloader to boot a BIOS native installation of another Fedora release. === How does that look? I think we had at least a consensus that this much was reasonable, and we have two bugs currently that would likely violate the proposed criterion: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=825236 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=964828 I think it's reasonable to consider these blockers for F21, but we should justify it ASAP to give the devs sufficient time to fix them. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
