This is my final post on this offtopic discussion,
so email me privately, please.
Does Fedora have an off-topic list for Fedorans
to talk about anything ?
I fixed the problem that I was having with the rpm-distro,
OpenMandriva. They apparently only have
two mirrors for the install I was using, and one of those
is possibly dead, and the install defaulted to the dead
wiki to help me change the mirror to the correct one.
$ sudo dnf --refresh install om-mirror-selector
$ sudo om-mirror-selector.sh -m
So now I have 4 functional operating systems on my
computer on separate drives: Fedora Rawhide, Fedora 33,
OpenMandriva Alpha, and OpenMandriva Cooker with zen kernel
so email me privately, please.

are in France and Italy. Along the way, their forum members, figured
out my problem, but I ended up finding two articles on theirwiki to help me change the mirror to the correct one.

So now I have 4 functional operating systems on my
computer on separate drives: Fedora Rawhide, Fedora 33,
OpenMandriva Alpha, and OpenMandriva Cooker with zen kernel
( znver1 ) built using clang.
Their leader, Bero, said their server was down yesterday, so I guess
that didn't help. They apparently have a team of at least 10
developers using Element as their chat forum. They were helpful.
They have one guy doing a mass-rebuild this week.
OpenMandriva uses Calamares installer, defaults to ext4, and
KDE Plasma 5.19 depending on the release you install.
The funny thing is that I still feel like a Linux novice, as there are
hundreds of things that I have no grasp of: gaming, virtual-machines,
samba, actual practical use of the software, like gnucash, but especially
troubleshooting, and especially with troubleshooting wi-fi, and printer
problems, zero knowledge of perl, rust, python, bash, and only know a few
terminal commands, etc.
Cheers,
