Oh, when are you planning to do the install? Are you going to do a fresh install of F32, or??
I would hope this weekend if I can get help. My equipment arrangement
has grown over the years and the computers are in rack and panel type
enclosures secured only at the front panel to aluminum angle verticals I
drilled and tapped for screws, it is heavy and the server is near the
bottom of the stack. I can't just pull it out without fear the aluminum
angles will give and bend so a block of wood will need to be cut to fill
the vacant space. I need a helper to do things that require good vision ...
Additional the FC24 is stuck as root, and root is not allowed to do
certain things, among them is setting the screensaver parameters, namely
setting the delay to start sleep, I set to 720 minutes, as high as it
will go. It tells me root can't do that and ignores the setting, sleeps,
actually more like a coma, in a short time, as it has been doing since
yesterday afternoon. The server wants the power cycled off/on to wake
it. That is why ssh is most convenient. I believe I created the new user
shown directly from the console but I've gone back and forth so many
times I may be confused and will check again this morning. The server
rarely gets shut down and I have to go around to the other side and push
a button, can't tell it to reboot or shutdown, it does not respond to
the keyboard when it goes into that sleep/coma condition!
