In response to the test announce I received today I downloaded the ISO
and check sum for the Rawhide (F30 0201 drop) Workstation. The check sum
result was okay; so I burned it to a DVD. I booted my test machine
(Lenovo M58p with E8400 processor, 4GB ram, 160 Gb disk) to the DVD and
proceeded with the install. For the disk I selected the make space
available option and when that window came up I selected Delete All.
Once the delete showed up on all of the partitions I selected Reclaim
Space. Then I clicked the begin installation and the installation
proceeded and completed normally.
When Anaconda was done I clicked the quit and when the Anaconda screen
was gone I selected the "power button" in the right side menu of the top
bar. Then I selected Restart from the pop up at the center of the
screen. After the shutdown sequence was complete, but before the actual
restart, I removed the DVD from the DVD drive so the PC would start from
the hard drive.
The following is my standard setup to get ready to do testing:
I only was a Root pass word on my test machine so when Gnome ask for a
uname and pw I provided a standard pair I use on the test machine. After
dismissing the get started and help windows, I opened a terminal window
and in the preferences I set the font to 22 and the background to black
on light yellow. I have been using the following procedure since
Anaconda and Gnome changes forced me to use this method. These have
worked well so far. I used the following command sequence:
sudo passwd -d uname
provided password (successful result)
sudo passwd
provided same standard pw as initially given to Gnome and verified
(successful result)
I closed the terminal window and opened Settings from the right side
menu in the top bar. In Power I set the time out to Never, and I set the
button to power down. in Devices I set the screen resolution to 1440 X
1080. Then I clicked Details with the intention of setting the login for
the user to automatic, but when I clicked Details, Settings crashed.
There is a bug report on this, but I can't give you the number now
because Bugzilla is down for maintenance.
I did a restart and the restart proceeded normally. When the uname
appeared I expected that an Enter would let me in and open Gnome. That
was always the case when I encountered the same Setting failure in prior
drops of F30, but it did not work this time. I tried using the pw, but
that was not accepted either. I tried a power off reboot, but that made
no difference.
I will be happy to try other things, but I have to leave in a couple of
hours and will not be able to get back to this until later tonight best
case or sometime tomorrow.
Have a Great Day!
