Installed Fedora-26, which was fast and a snap... now doing the first reboot, since it wanted to install updates. I've been sitting here for literally 15 minutes watching a useless black screen... much like how windows does this.. Is that just an unhappy default, or required. In Ubuntu they are downloaded as you continue to work, you reboot, and that's usually quick, and you're back to work, usually that all takes a minute.
That is strange. The packages would have been downloaded and prepared, then you reboot and they are installed. I don't remember ever doing the offline updates, but I assumed it would be similar to the release upgrade process where it gives you a progress bar and package counts. I doubt that a clear black screen is ok.
I should clarify that there was a percentage counter in (I believe) the top left corner, that very slowly went through the percentages of being done. So the screen wasn't completely black.
If you installed it from the workstation live image, there would be a
lot of updates to do the first time. But they were downloaded before
the reboot, the time required is for doing the package updates. I
expect any further updates would be much quicker although certain
packages like the kernel have scripts that take a while to do some
processing.
