 Replying to [comment:1 jdulaney]:
 > As an aside, are we going to do a specific test for Grub 2 for F16?  Or
 would this be included in the standard testing by default?

 David Lehman added some installer tests to the Test Plan on the
 [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Features/Grub2Migration#Test_Plan
 Grub2Migration page]. According to it, so far
 [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Fedora_15_Install_Results_Template our
 install test] covers the 'x86', 'x86/EFI' boot cases and system upgrade
 tests. I will add some result verification steps like 'Check if grub
 legacy was upgraded to grub2' to the expected results. In addition, I will
 add a x86/BIOS(GPT) case to the install plan. For other scenarios such as
 ppc, migration from other bootloader etc, I prefer to have a test day
 focusing on grub2 to cover all these tests. Any suggestion on this?
 Thanks.
