Fedora 21
- Rawhide is now f 22
- To convert to a F21 and remove rawhide repos:
- Boot.iso - Basically a (Rawhide) Netinstall (Built daily)
- This is Rawhide so it may (or not) work. Latest is 21.48.1-11 Anaconda 07/29/2014
- Works in Virtualbox
- Download:
- https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/21/x86_64/os/images/boot.iso
- https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/x86_64/os/images/boot.iso
- boot.iso is the same as a netinstall.iso
- For latest Builds builds (and links to them) see:
- fedora-qa Install testing:
- 06/24/2014 NetworkManager--wifi added to comps in f21(rawhide)
- SoaS shows wireless and ad-hoc in f1 Network Neighborhood on install
"If you suddenly find yourself without Wi-Fi,find a wired network connection and:
dnf install NetworkManager-wifi systemctl restart NetworkManager"
DNF vs YUM
Upgrade to rawhide from an existing installation
Systemd
- Fedora wiki page
Updating Grub 2 on UEFI systems
Turn off gnome automatic background updates
- NOTE seems to be no longer available:
- To turn off background downloading of updates and forced 10 minute updates on boot of gnome3.10.1
- Root terminal
yum install dconf-editor
- User Terminal
dconf-editor gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/updates
- Uncheck [ ] auto updates
- NOTE this plugin no longer exists in f21(rawhide) 03/14/2014
- see gnome Bug:
- This is modified: 12/28/2013
"This moves more functionality from the gsd updates plugin here: * Notify about successful or unsuccessful offline updates 15 seconds after start. * Monitor for available offline updates and notify about them, once per hour. * Refresh the cache once per day, after 6am. * If important updates are available, or updates have not been installed for at least 7 days, download all available updates. We rely on PackageKit to prepare an offline update when updates have been downloaded. * Avoid mobile networks for cache refresh and downloads."
Logic Map for Updates in gnome
know how to force a reinstall of a kernel

AppInstaller in F21
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/AppInstallerContinued
"gnome-software will support installing system add-ons such as fonts and codecs. It will show additional metadata for applications: screenshots, ratings, other details. We will also work with the Fedora infrastructure team to obtain the metadata online for all applications instead of shipping it statically for a limited set."
Fedora.next
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora.next
"This all came out of a number of proposals at Flock 2013, including Architecture for a More Agile Fedora and Stephen Gallagher's suggestion that we use that architecture to design, build, and market three distinct Fedora products. This grew into a proposal accepted by the Fedora advisory board, and the formation of Initial Working Groups by FESCo. "
