In the end, after many machinations, neither MBR or UEFI would install, always hanging at "installing boot partition". As I mentioned, I opened a bugzilla for this, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1714828 which is still unresolved. The latest rawhide version, 20190604, still exhibits this issue. So, I downloaded the equivalent F30 netinstall image, and it installed a minimal UEFI install flawlessly. It boots fine, so I could stop here, and just turn on the rawhide repositories to get to F31, but I think I'll keep trying candidates from rawhide, at least for a while. _______________________________________________ test mailing list -- test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to test-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
