(I'm doing this from a windows-7 box)
This morning, I did my weekly patches for my f-39 stand-alone
workstation. No problems.
Then I did the upgrade to f-40. I did not sit there and watch it.
During the automatic reboot, it booted using the nouveau driver
rather than the kmod one from rpm fusion non-free. During the
post-upgrade task "remove-retired-packages", the workstation
apparently crashed. Upon rebooting, it came up in console(?) mode; I
could not get into graphics mode.
I shutdown again, and tried to boot into f-39. But it came up f-40,
console mode.
I have neither "live" media nor installation media; last time I
tried them, they didn't work. F-40 console mode and window-7 are all
I have to work with.
How do I get this workstation working properly in Fedora?
Try running `dnf distro-sync` first. If it says it will install F39
packages, then don't continue.
Tried it as root and re-directed to a text file. It wants to upgrade
packages to f-39, so I responded 'N' to its prompt.
I have "ext2explore" in windows-7, so I can access (read only!) that
text file produced by "dnf distro-sync". Here are the first several lines:
