 functional since it is included in the Beta release criteria
 (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_14_Beta_Release_Criteria).  I've
 relied on feedback from pjones in previous releases to run this test.
 Mainly because running this test is still a mystery to me.  I agree the
 conditions around this test are not ideal, but I don't have any great
 ideas for improving this right now :(

 I see, since it's included in beta criteria, let's keep this test.

 another test?

 Hmm, I think it depends on the importance of no swap partitioning. A
 possible way is to absorb this into the expected results of ext4 and ext3
 partitioning tests, saying "If no swap partition is given, a warning
 dialogue will pop up...", but then no swap is not guaranteed to be tested.
 So, I think just keeping this test is fine.

 I understand now.

 QA:Testcase_Preupgrade_from_older_release] is already the case of low
 /boot disk space. And for upgrading from F13, 500M /boot is enough for
 preupgrading.

 F14.  The remaining preupgrade test is written to mimic a real-world
 upgrade scenario, so we should capture any /boot size issues as they
 surface.

 Okay, I'll remove

 QA:Testcase_Preupgrade_low_/boot_disk_space_to_install]

 Thank you all. I'm closing this ticket. Feel free to reopen in need.
