The graphical install should occur at the most suitable resolution and colour resolution available from the system a minimum resolution of 1024 x 768 should be supported
No installation action requiring user intervention should appear off-screen for the resolution chosen (OK buttons; APPLY buttons, etc)
Where possible the user should be able to return to the previous step in the installation process. Where this is not possible the user should be warned that there is no reversion or possibility of revision from the next step (i.e. partition formatting)
Automatic set-up of the X-server should function where drivers are not functional for the installed card the X-server should default to the VESA driver to provide a fail-safe option.
The chosen window should install without error if this fails an alternative basic window manager should be offered. Automatic start-up of the window manager should be offered during the install.
The sound server should install automatically audible confirmation for the user should confirm this. If there is no sound card or if sound installation fails an appropriate message should be displayed.
#### User Setup
The installer should call for the provision of a root password.
The installer should force the creation of at least one user.
The graphical login manager should display all users (excluding system users).
The chosen user should be the one that last logged in. In the case of a new installation it it should be the first entry when users are sorted alphabetically (a to z)
The keyboard cursor should start in the password text entry box.
If a shutdown/general purpose menu is included all functions must operate correctly.
The login manager must not allow access to the window manager without a password.
It should be possible to start a CLI interface login from the graphical login manager.
After login the chosen window manager should startup without error
Visible indication of USB plugged devices should be easily seen. (including wireless and wired network devices)
In the case of USB disk/cdrom/memory drives these should all mount cleanly for the following filesystems ext2, ext3, ext4, fat32, ntfs3g and any encrypted file system drivers that may be included with the operating system.
- All the programs listed above must be functional and able to open, process, close and save a file where appropriate. There must be no outstanding security issues.
- There must be no bugs that seriously compromise the functionality of the system as far as the user is concerned for the core packages listed above. Bugs in supplementary packages and contrib that do not adversely affect the running for the os may be tolerated. Bugs that will not be tolerated are excessive disk usage, high system resource consumption, memory leaks, window manager lockup and and any form of system freeze.
- It must be possible to install a different kernel from the OM repository without problems. The kernel installation script must properly update the boot manager and show the availability of the new kernel in the boot up screen. The original kernel must be renamed in such a manner as to make it clear that this was the original default kernel. The symbolic links which point to the default kernel must be properly updated.
- It must be possible to achieve network connectivity and where available be able to access the Internet. This should be possible for both wireless and wired connections;
- No commonly used server must fail to start;
- The system must be able to print from all applications that provide this service;
QA Team and testers are encouraged to produce a detailed [checklist](https://github.com/OpenMandrivaAssociation/distribution/wiki/QA-Checklist-for-QA-and-testers) for ISO with list of detected bugs.<br/>
