Description

See https://jira.suse.com/browse/SLE-7687 and https://jira.suse.com/browse/SLE-7737

Exploratory manual testing.

So it's just about "So the request is for YaST to add the "nofail" parameter to crypttab in the respective case.". iSCSI can be started in docker container https://github.com/rwx788/docker_images
but we need ibft to boot from it.

For ibft configuration:

  1. Download https://ipxe.org/download
  2. Specify path to the file as path to kernel (Direct kernel boot in VM manager or '-kernel /usr/share/qemu/ipxe.lkrn' for qemu command)
  3. Specify iscsi target parameter dhcp && sanhook %iSCSI_TARGET% (kernel args in VM manager or '-append dhcp && sanhook iscsi:10.160.1.93::3260:1:iqn.2016-02.openqa.de:for.openqa' for qemu)
  4. Specify withiscsi=1 boot option for the installer to get iSCSI disks configuration page

Acceptance criteria

  1. Scope of changes is learned
  2. Exploratory testing is conducted for the parts which are not covered by the automated tests
  3. Follow-up tickets for automated tests are created with detailed description in case are considered to be useful (efforts vs profit)
