UBT001.001 USB detect and boot after coldboot

Test description

This test aims to verify that the DUT properly detects USB device and boots into the operating system after coldboot (reboot realized by power supply cutting off then restoring back). This test case may be re-done several times to specify the platform and connection stability.

Test configuration data

  1. FIRMWARE = Dasharo
  2. OPERATING_SYSTEM = Debian 11.0

Test setup

  1. Proceed with the Generic test setup: firmware.

Test steps

  1. Cut the power off.
  2. Restore power to the DUT.
  3. Wait for boot until BOOT_MENU_STRING appears.

  5. Check if USB_STICK entry is available.
  6. Select the proper number for USB_STICK option.
  7. Wait for Debian GNU/Linux.

Expected result

The Debian GNU/Linux is visible and confirms successful boot into OS after coldboot.
