Failed on my swap (though once running 'free' shows the swap space). selinux having to do its thing and taking some time. OK at this point you're running into the GPT-swap commonbugs so you might go read all of that to see what applies to your situation. You can ignored the swap thing or you can # it out in fstab, systemd still activates it based on partitiontypeGUID. > > The process to create a user in the 'firstboot' environment did not allow for tagging the user to be an adminstrator. How do I do that?

Definitely not what I provided, nor <null>. 'su -' with all sorts of tries never got me into root. Maybe you used one keyboard layout in the installer and you've booted with a different layout? That's all I can think of and can't help with it because I've only ever used default (U.S.) keyboard installs. > So how do I change the root password (hmm did it even create a root user?)? OK that's a bit of first day at the rodeo questions now! Pretty sure you can go back to the chroot and set a new passwd for root and user if you can't remember them. > I would like to upload those firstboot messages, if you think they tell anything (like the swap drive fail), but are they in /var/log/messages any longer, and of course I need root to get to them (though I could probably mount that drive here and check). journalctl -xb | grep -i swap Chris Murphy -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
