Guess we have to miss out testing from people who refuse to use the
vmware images regardless of the fact that it has already been provided
in http://fedorareloaded.com just like we miss out supporting all those
whizbang proprietary kernel drivers by design and if you are testing
FC5test2, I would appreciate feedback to fedora-test list. Thanks.
Thanks - I guess the Jan 22. date explains why I couldn't find
it on Friday. Note that I plan to run this on a machine
where I'd be very uncomfortable about letting new and
untested drivers touch real hardware, no matter how whizbang
they claim to be.
They cant possibly damage modern hardware.
I expect it to greatly decrease the time
until I am comfortable with using it on a real system, though.
Real systems are better than vmware or xen instances for good testing
for several reasons. So even if you can grab such images one way or the
other, I would recomming testing in on the hardware directly rather than
using virtualisation layers which do no exposure all the hardware for
bare testing. Looking forward to feedback on the fedora-test list. Thanks.
