At yesterday's F29 Go/No-Go meeting, we discussed the blocker status of BZ #1628192 - Fedora 29 installation cannot see a firmware RAID device. While the blocker criteria clearly states that this should be a blocker for Beta, many of the people present at the meeting disagreed, for a variety of reasons.
- Hardware supporting fwraid is considerably less pervasive than it
was when the criterion was written
- Testing this criterion can only be done with install media, which
limits our testing pool to the very dedicated members of Fedora QA. Yes, anyone *can* download a nightly compose and try it, but in practice this tends to be limited to the core testers. The majority of testing that this feature will get will tend to happen as people try out the Beta release.
To that end, I'd like to propose that we make the following change to the criteria going forward:
"The blocking criterion for successful installation atop a firmware RAID array is moved to the GA release criteria."
I hope this won't just mean we discover the problems later, in practice.
The policy of Fedora QA is to run all of the GA-blocking tests at Beta as well.
