feat: PXE install testing #1281

Closed papamoose closed 3 months ago

papamoose commented 3 months ago

Add the ability to quickly spin up vm that will test PXE installs in various configurations.

Network in bridged mode.
secure boot on or off
uefi enabled or not

The goal is to test automatic installations (preseed, kickstart, autoyast, etc) via PXE, iPXE, networked grub.

Quickemu supports bridged networking, secure boot on/off and UEFI or legacy boot. Creating the test platform you request is out of scope for the project, but could be implemented as a separate related project :slightly_smiling_face:
