[SLE-Micro] Repair JeOS-firstboot wizard for SLEM ppc64le images
0%
Description
Current SLEM test runs that rely on the JeOS-firstboot wizard do not work for ppc64le after https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1229336. The reason is that the graphical console by default does not work. This means all test runs that rely on the JeOS-firstboot wizard (i.e. all test runs that do not use ignition/combustions/cloud-init) are affected.
https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1229336#c37 outlines that the graphical display is not expected to work on PPC, so we need to make a test runs that utilizes the JeOS-firstboot wizard via the serial terminal. This should replace the currently used firstrun
module and possibly also modify the bootloader_uefi
module accordingly.
Acceptance criteria¶
-
AC1:
A test module installs SLEM6 using the JeOS-firstboot wizard via Serial Terminalneed to addrd.kiwi.install.pass.bootparam=console=tty
as kernel parameter - AC2: The "Latest" SLEM6 job group will use this in their ppc64 test runs in the non-ignition/combustion/cloud-init test runs
