I’m playing with F16 at work, prep’ing for the big migration from F14. I’ve already installed a laptop. Now I’m doing a dual-core server.<\/p>\n
The first thing I noticed that is different from my usual installation process<\/a> is that the asknetwork boot option to anaconda<\/a> doesn’t work. The boot process never asks for the network configuration. However, applying the network configuration manually as boot options works as a workaround. So the F16 command line options are now the following:<\/p>\n askmethod ip=<addr> netmask=<mask> gateway=<addr> dns=<addr,addr> noipv6 noselinux selinux=0<\/font><\/p><\/blockquote>\n I don’t use IPv6 behind the firewall because I don’t need it yet. I supposed I’ll be forced into it eventually, but for now this still works.<\/p>\n Also, the boot process hangs doing something with systemd<\/i>. After setting the boot options and hitting enter, the boot process blanks the screen and then just sits there for quite a while – perhaps a couple of minutes. If this happens to you, be patient. Systemd eventually times out and logs an error about “no such directory”. After that, the install process continues as usual.<\/p>\n I actually have a very detailed process on how I do my upgrades that I need to put on my wiki. Well, eventually.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’m playing with F16 at work, prep’ing for the big migration from F14. I’ve already installed a laptop.
