Testcase (Report an issue with this testcase)

A copy of Windows must already be installed for this test case. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Backing_Up for information on saving a Windows image for repeated installs. This testcase ensures Wubi can add a boot menu entry to allow users to boot off the CD without having to change the device boot order in the bios.

Switch on your machine log in to Windows
Insert the install cd
The Wubi CD Menu (Umenu) starts
Select "Demo and Full installation"
Select the third option "CD-booter"
A small dialog should appear with some further information. Confirm and install
You should now have a new "Wubi" option within the Windows boot menu. If you boot from CD anyway, select "Boot from first hard disk" within the CD boot menu in order to simulate the circumstances of a user with different device boot order. If you use grub or other bootloader, you will have to chainload into the Windows bootloader to see the new entry
If you select "Wubi" it should load the kernel/initrd from hard disk and then try to boot off the CD rom (which should be in the tray) and land in the Live CD desktop
