Description Pierre Prinetti 2022-01-05 09:47:32 UTC

Description of problem:
On the Fedora IoT downloads page[1], I am presented with two formats: "Raw Images" versus "Installer ISOs". It is not explained why I would choose one over the other.

[1]: https://getfedora.org/en/iot/download/


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora IoT 35


How I got there:
1. I searched 'Fedora iot' in my favourite search engine
2. I landed on 'https://getfedora.org/iot/'
3. I clicked 'Download' in the top right-hand corner of the page


Actual results:
I am presented the two format options without any explanation


Expected results:
I am presented the download format that matches the documentation


Additional info:
In the Fedora IoT documentation[2], neither the words "Raw Image" nor "Installer ISO" seem to be ever mentioned.
In both the "Getting Started" sections "Setting up a Virtual Machine" and "Setting up a Physical Device", the command-line examples refer to the downloaded file as `Ferora-IoT-[version].raw.xz` (and not .iso).

I'm working on closing the Fedora Documentation component in bugzilla, so I moved this to Gitlab: https://gitlab.com/fedora/websites-apps/fedora-websites/fedora-websites-3.0/-/issues/296
