Hi folks!

So there's a current Beta blocker bug:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1683197

it is currently accepted as a blocker on the understanding that trying
to boot to Workstation in 'basic graphics mode' (i.e. with 'nomodeset'
on the cmdline) *always* fails, on all hardware (or at least on most
hardware). However, we don't yet have enough testing to be sure of
this.

It'd be very helpful if folks with a test box can boot a Fedora 30
Workstation live image on it, using the 'Start Fedora-Workstation-Live
30 in basic graphics mode' option from the 'Troubleshooting' menu, and
see if it successfully reaches the desktop. Here's an image you can
use:

(For bonus points, you can also try this with the F29 final live image,
and see if it works with *that* :>)

Please report your findings as a reply to this email, thanks a lot!


I tested as you requested on my Lenovo M58p with E8400 processor.

For F30 the start up hung after "OK Started GNOME Display Manager". No further.

For F29 the start up hung after "OK Started GNOME Display Manager" followed "Starting Network Manager Script Dispatcher Service...? No further.

For F28 the system booted to the desktop.


	Have a Great Day!
