Not that I knew about problems regarding such an install. I had my first install of Fedora (24) to an msata SSD quite a few months ago, and I'm not aware of any problems that I thought could be related to SSD architecture. On a second SSD (a "real" SSD, not msata) in the same computer I have Debian Linux installed - I never even speculated about whether the fact the disks are SSD's could lead to problems ... :) (Except that I heard they break without too much announcing of it ... ) > > At the moment I've let it install with whatever parameters it does by > itself.

I think I let the Fedora installer wipe the SSD before partitiong it - also because MS Windows was on it before - just to make sure of a clean install. The only problem with this installation was that the installer at the end of the install said something like I wouldn't be able to boot the system. It was wrong: I could boot Fedora. Tho' I have two different -- although with different wordings for them - UEFI boot entries for Fedora. My guess: it's a UEFI bug, or a feature ... :) And yes: I also didn't take the LVM partitioning options for the disk. Not for F24, and not, IINM, for Debian. On Fedora just SWAP, /home, / and /boot/efi. HTH, Wolfgang > > -- > Trying out Thunderbird for mail. > 5... 4... 3... 2... ONE!
