[Test-Announce] Fedora 20 Final Test Compose 4 (TC4) Available Now!

[Andre Robatino]

NOTE: The 64-bit LXDE Live is over its size limit.

As per the Fedora 20 schedule [1], Fedora 20 Final Test Compose 4 (TC4)
is now available for testing. Content information, including changes,
can be found at https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5808#comment:11
. Please see the following pages for download links (including delta
ISOs) and testing instructions. Normally dl.fedoraproject.org should
provide the fastest download, but download-ib01.fedoraproject.org is
available as a mirror (with an approximately 1 hour lag) in case of
trouble. To use it, just replace "dl" with "download-ib01" in the
download URL.

Installation:

Base:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Base_Test

Desktop:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Desktop_Test

Ideally, all Alpha, Beta, and Final priority test cases for Installation
[2], Base [3], and Desktop [4] should pass in order to meet the Final
Release Criteria [5]. Help is available on #fedora-qa on
irc.freenode.net [6], or on the test list [7].

Booting Fedora-20-TC4-x86_64-DVD.iso from USB drive
on an Asus p8z77-vleplus UEFI Anaconda cannot modify
the hard drive when booted UEFI.   I see a complaint about
a 509 certificate; it scrolls off before I can write it down.

It appears one cannot boot from a 4TB hard drive without
UEFI being enabled????

These seem to be separate issues. I can't reproduce the first issue.

As for the second, the CSM-BIOS could conceivably have a problem with 2+TB drives by design.

Last and least, please change the subject when you're effectively starting a new thread. If everyone just replied to the test announce subject whenever they had problems with the latest candidate, we'd all turn into ducks.
