 During Fedora 13, release engineering will provide schedule drops of
 rawhide for automated testing against rats_install.  The provided data
 will include a compose tree (without packages).  For proper automated
 testing of these images, post-tree-compose will need to monitor a new URL
 for testing (likely candidate is
 http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/stage/rawhide-testing).

 In addition, rats_install will need to support installing with stage2 and
 the package repo in different locations.  That will be tracked in another
 ticket.

 Currently, the stage2 is not supported from command grub line, please see
 : https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=609379 , so we may have to
 put install tree in ks file

 Thanks for the link to the bug.  This ticket is intended to track updating
 the current post-tree-compose autoqa watcher to detect the special rawhide
 acceptance image creation.  The rawhide acceptance test runs provide only
 pxeboot images, a boot.iso and install.img.  Packages are not provided.

 From the bug you reference, it appears that the stage2 image on physical
 media takes precedence over any stage2= boot arguments.  You are correct
 that any tests initiated by this watcher script (or other install image
 watchers) will need to accommodate this.  In this case, rats_install test
 uses the pxeboot images to boot the installer, so stage2= is honored by
 the installer.
