Comment:
Adding clumens for some clarification on anaconda upgrade bootloader behavior.
Replying to [comment:2 rhe]:
Two tests have been drafted for upgrading in text mode:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Anaconda_Upgrade_Skip_Bootloader_...
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Anaconda_Upgrade_Update_Bootloade...
Nice, the tests look good.
I'm still unclear on the difference in expected results for the ''Skip bootloader'' and the ''update bootloader'' test case. When a new kernel package is installed during the upgrade, it will run grubby (see the %script of the kernel rpm) and modify grub.conf. When we choose ''Skip bootloader'', does that mean that anaconda '''will not''' write a new bootloader configuration and '''will not''' run grub-install, but '''will''' update the existing grub.conf when the new kernel is installed?
clumens: any thoughts?
