This testcase [1] should ensure, that if the user uses Livecd-iso-to-disk to transfer the Fedora Live.iso to USB stick, the boot process works 'as expected'.

I propose this as a Alpha verification testcase.

---------------------------

= Description =

This test verifies that Fedora Live Image can be booted from USB stick.

There are more methods to create the Live USB stick, this test covers Livecd-iso-to-disk. 

== Setup ==

* Prepare the Live ISO image and USB stick.
* Copy the Live.iso to the USB stick using Livecd-iso-to-disk [2]

== How to test ==

* Insert the USB stick containing Live.iso, and boot the system under test
* At the boot prompt, interrupt the automatic boot sequence by pressing any key. Then select the menu option Boot. 

== Expected Results ==

* A graphical boot menu is displayed and the graphics look reasonably good. While hi-res images aren't supported in the boot menu, the graphics should not look extremely pixelated.
* Upon selecting Boot, the Live image boots successfully.
