Creative Commons Corporation ("Creative Commons") is not a law firm and
|
||||
does not provide legal services or legal advice. Distribution of
|
||||
Creative Commons public licenses does not create a lawyer-client or
|
||||
other relationship. Creative Commons makes its licenses and related
|
||||
information available on an "as-is" basis. Creative Commons gives no
|
||||
warranties regarding its licenses, any material licensed under their

terms and conditions, or any related information. Creative Commons

|

|
||||
Using Creative Commons Public Licenses
|
||||
|
||||
Creative Commons public licenses provide a standard set of terms and
|
||||
conditions that creators and other rights holders may use to share
|
||||
original works of authorship and other material subject to copyright
|
||||
and certain other rights specified in the public license below. The
|
||||
following considerations are for informational purposes only, are not
|
||||
exhaustive, and do not form part of our licenses.
|
||||
|
||||
Considerations for licensors: Our public licenses are
|
||||
intended for use by those authorized to give the public
|
||||
permission to use material in ways otherwise restricted by
|
||||
copyright and certain other rights. Our licenses are
|
||||
irrevocable. Licensors should read and understand the terms
|
||||
and conditions of the license they choose before applying it.
|
||||
Licensors should also secure all rights necessary before
|
||||
applying our licenses so that the public can reuse the
|
||||
material as expected. Licensors should clearly mark any
|
||||
material not subject to the license. This includes other CC-
|
||||
licensed material, or material used under an exception or
|
||||
limitation to copyright. More considerations for licensors:
|
||||
wiki.creativecommons.org/Considerations_for_licensors
|
||||
|
||||
Considerations for the public: By using one of our public
|
||||
licenses, a licensor grants the public permission to use the
|
||||
licensed material under specified terms and conditions. If
|
||||
the licensor's permission is not necessary for any reason--for
|
||||
example, because of any applicable exception or limitation to
|
||||
copyright--then that use is not regulated by the license. Our
|
||||
licenses grant only permissions under copyright and certain
|
||||
other rights that a licensor has authority to grant. Use of
|
||||
the licensed material may still be restricted for other
|
||||
reasons, including because others have copyright or other
|
||||
rights in the material. A licensor may make special requests,
|
||||
such as asking that all changes be marked or described.
|
||||
Although not required by our licenses, you are encouraged to
|
||||
respect those requests where reasonable. More considerations
|
||||

|
||||
available to the public including in ways that members of the

individually chosen by them.

m. You means the individual or entity exercising the Licensed Rights

|

Section 2 -- Scope.
|
||||
|
||||
a. License grant.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Public License,
|
||||
the Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free,
|
||||
non-sublicensable, non-exclusive, irrevocable license to
|
||||
exercise the Licensed Rights in the Licensed Material to:
|
||||
|
||||
a. reproduce and Share the Licensed Material, in whole or
|
||||
in part; and
|
||||
|
||||
b. produce, reproduce, and Share Adapted Material.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Exceptions and Limitations. For the avoidance of doubt, where
|
||||
Exceptions and Limitations apply to Your use, this Public
|
||||
License does not apply, and You do not need to comply with
|
||||
its terms and conditions.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Term. The term of this Public License is specified in Section
|
||||
6(a).
|
||||
|
||||
4. Media and formats; technical modifications allowed. The
|
||||
Licensor authorizes You to exercise the Licensed Rights in
|
||||
all media and formats whether now known or hereafter created,
|
||||
and to make technical modifications necessary to do so. The
|
||||
Licensor waives and/or agrees not to assert any right or
|
||||
authority to forbid You from making technical modifications
|
||||
necessary to exercise the Licensed Rights, including
|
||||
technical modifications necessary to circumvent Effective
|
||||
Technological Measures. For purposes of this Public License,
|
||||
simply making modifications authorized by this Section 2(a)
|
||||
(4) never produces Adapted Material.
|
||||
|
||||
5. Downstream recipients.
|
||||
|
||||
a. Offer from the Licensor -- Licensed Material. Every
|
||||
recipient of the Licensed Material automatically
|
||||
receives an offer from the Licensor to exercise the
|
||||
Licensed Rights under the terms and conditions of this
|
||||
Public License.
|
||||
|
||||
b. Additional offer from the Licensor -- Adapted Material.
|
||||
Every recipient of Adapted Material from You
|
||||
automatically receives an offer from the Licensor to
|
||||
exercise the Licensed Rights in the Adapted Material
|
||||
under the conditions of the Adapter's License You apply.
|
||||
|
||||
c. No downstream restrictions. You may not offer or impose
|
||||
any additional or different terms or conditions on, or
|
||||
apply any Effective Technological Measures to, the
|
||||
Licensed Material if doing so restricts exercise of the
|
||||
Licensed Rights by any recipient of the Licensed
|
||||
Material.
|
||||
|
||||
6. No endorsement. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or
|
||||
may be construed as permission to assert or imply that You
|
||||
are, or that Your use of the Licensed Material is, connected
|
||||
with, or sponsored, endorsed, or granted official status by,
|
||||
the Licensor or others designated to receive attribution as
|
||||
provided in Section 3(a)(1)(A)(i).
|
||||
|
||||
b. Other rights.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Moral rights, such as the right of integrity, are not
|
||||
licensed under this Public License, nor are publicity,
|
||||
privacy, and/or other similar personality rights; however, to
|
||||
the extent possible, the Licensor waives and/or agrees not to
|
||||
assert any such rights held by the Licensor to the limited
|
||||
extent necessary to allow You to exercise the Licensed
|
||||
Rights, but not otherwise.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Patent and trademark rights are not licensed under this
|
||||
Public License.
|
||||
|
||||
3. To the extent possible, the Licensor waives any right to
|
||||
collect royalties from You for the exercise of the Licensed
|
||||
Rights, whether directly or through a collecting society
|
||||
under any voluntary or waivable statutory or compulsory
|
||||
licensing scheme. In all other cases the Licensor expressly
|
||||
reserves any right to collect such royalties.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Section 3 -- License Conditions.
|
||||
|
||||
Your exercise of the Licensed Rights is expressly made subject to the
|
||||
following conditions.
|
||||
|
||||
a. Attribution.
|
||||
|
||||
1. If You Share the Licensed Material (including in modified
|
||||
form), You must:
|
||||
|
||||
a. retain the following if it is supplied by the Licensor
|
||||
with the Licensed Material:
|
||||
|
||||
i. identification of the creator(s) of the Licensed
|
||||
Material and any others designated to receive
|
||||
attribution, in any reasonable manner requested by
|
||||
the Licensor (including by pseudonym if
|
||||
designated);
|
||||
|
||||
ii. a copyright notice;
|
||||
|
||||
iii. a notice that refers to this Public License;
|
||||
|
||||
iv. a notice that refers to the disclaimer of
|
||||
warranties;
|
||||
|
||||
v. a URI or hyperlink to the Licensed Material to the
|
||||
extent reasonably practicable;
|
||||
|
||||
b. indicate if You modified the Licensed Material and
|
||||
retain an indication of any previous modifications; and
|
||||
|
||||
c. indicate the Licensed Material is licensed under this
|
||||
Public License, and include the text of, or the URI or
|
||||
hyperlink to, this Public License.
|
||||
|
||||
2. You may satisfy the conditions in Section 3(a)(1) in any
|
||||
reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and context in
|
||||
which You Share the Licensed Material. For example, it may be
|
||||
reasonable to satisfy the conditions by providing a URI or
|
||||
hyperlink to a resource that includes the required
|
||||
information.
|
||||
|
||||
3. If requested by the Licensor, You must remove any of the
|
||||
information required by Section 3(a)(1)(A) to the extent
|
||||
reasonably practicable.
|
||||
|
||||
b. ShareAlike.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to the conditions in Section 3(a), if You Share
|
||||
Adapted Material You produce, the following conditions also apply.
|
||||
|
||||
1. The Adapter's License You apply must be a Creative Commons
|
||||
license with the same License Elements, this version or
|
||||
later, or a BY-SA Compatible License.
|
||||
|
||||
2. You must include the text of, or the URI or hyperlink to, the
|
||||
Adapter's License You apply. You may satisfy this condition
|
||||
in any reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and
|
||||
context in which You Share Adapted Material.
|
||||
|
||||
3. You may not offer or impose any additional or different terms
|
||||
or conditions on, or apply any Effective Technological
|
||||
Measures to, Adapted Material that restrict exercise of the
|
||||
rights granted under the Adapter's License You apply.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Section 4 -- Sui Generis Database Rights.
|
||||
|
||||
Where the Licensed Rights include Sui Generis Database Rights that
|
||||
apply to Your use of the Licensed Material:
|
||||
|
||||
a. for the avoidance of doubt, Section 2(a)(1) grants You the right
|
||||
to extract, reuse, reproduce, and Share all or a substantial
|
||||
portion of the contents of the database;
|
||||
|
||||
b. if You include all or a substantial portion of the database
|
||||
contents in a database in which You have Sui Generis Database
|
||||
Rights, then the database in which You have Sui Generis Database
|
||||
Rights (but not its individual contents) is Adapted Material,
|
||||
including for purposes of Section 3(b); and
|
||||
|
||||
c. You must comply with the conditions in Section 3(a) if You Share
|
||||
all or a substantial portion of the contents of the database.
|
||||
|
||||
For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 4 supplements and does not
|
||||
replace Your obligations under this Public License where the Licensed
|
||||
Rights include other Copyright and Similar Rights.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Section 5 -- Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability.
|
||||
|
||||
a. UNLESS OTHERWISE SEPARATELY UNDERTAKEN BY THE LICENSOR, TO THE
|
||||
EXTENT POSSIBLE, THE LICENSOR OFFERS THE LICENSED MATERIAL AS-IS
|
||||
AND AS-AVAILABLE, AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF
|
||||
ANY KIND CONCERNING THE LICENSED MATERIAL, WHETHER EXPRESS,
|
||||
IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHER. THIS INCLUDES, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
|
||||
WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
|
||||
PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS,
|
||||
ACCURACY, OR THE PRESENCE OR ABSENCE OF ERRORS, WHETHER OR NOT
|
||||
KNOWN OR DISCOVERABLE. WHERE DISCLAIMERS OF WARRANTIES ARE NOT
|
||||
ALLOWED IN FULL OR IN PART, THIS DISCLAIMER MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
|
||||
|
||||
b. TO THE EXTENT POSSIBLE, IN NO EVENT WILL THE LICENSOR BE LIABLE
|
||||
TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
|
||||
NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE FOR ANY DIRECT, SPECIAL, INDIRECT,
|
||||
INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, OR OTHER LOSSES,
|
||||
COSTS, EXPENSES, OR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS PUBLIC LICENSE OR
|
||||
USE OF THE LICENSED MATERIAL, EVEN IF THE LICENSOR HAS BEEN
|
||||
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES, COSTS, EXPENSES, OR
|
||||
DAMAGES. WHERE A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY IS NOT ALLOWED IN FULL OR
|
||||
IN PART, THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
|
||||
|
||||
c. The disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability provided
|
||||
above shall be interpreted in a manner that, to the extent
|
||||
possible, most closely approximates an absolute disclaimer and
|
||||
waiver of all liability.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Section 6 -- Term and Termination.
|
||||
|
||||
a. This Public License applies for the term of the Copyright and
|
||||
Similar Rights licensed here. However, if You fail to comply with
|
||||
this Public License, then Your rights under this Public License
|
||||
terminate automatically.
|
||||
|
||||
b. Where Your right to use the Licensed Material has terminated under
|
||||
Section 6(a), it reinstates:
|
||||
|
||||
1. automatically as of the date the violation is cured, provided
|
||||
it is cured within 30 days of Your discovery of the
|
||||
violation; or
|
||||
|
||||
2. upon express reinstatement by the Licensor.
|
||||
|
||||
For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6(b) does not affect any
|
||||
right the Licensor may have to seek remedies for Your violations
|
||||
of this Public License.
|
||||
|
||||
c. For the avoidance of doubt, the Licensor may also offer the
|
||||
Licensed Material under separate terms or conditions or stop
|
||||
distributing the Licensed Material at any time; however, doing so
|
||||
will not terminate this Public License.
|
||||
|
||||
d. Sections 1, 5, 6, 7, and 8 survive termination of this Public
|
||||
License.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Section 7 -- Other Terms and Conditions.
|
||||
|
||||
a. The Licensor shall not be bound by any additional or different
|
||||
terms or conditions communicated by You unless expressly agreed.
|
||||
|
||||
b. Any arrangements, understandings, or agreements regarding the
|
||||
Licensed Material not stated herein are separate from and
|
||||
independent of the terms and conditions of this Public License.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Section 8 -- Interpretation.
|
||||
|
||||
a. For the avoidance of doubt, this Public License does not, and
|
||||
shall not be interpreted to, reduce, limit, restrict, or impose
|
||||
conditions on any use of the Licensed Material that could lawfully
|
||||
be made without permission under this Public License.
|
||||
|
||||
b. To the extent possible, if any provision of this Public License is
|
||||
deemed unenforceable, it shall be automatically reformed to the
|
||||
minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable. If the provision
|
||||
cannot be reformed, it shall be severed from this Public License
|
||||
without affecting the enforceability of the remaining terms and
|
||||
conditions.
|
||||
|
||||
c. No term or condition of this Public License will be waived and no
|
||||
failure to comply consented to unless expressly agreed to by the
|
||||
Licensor.
|
||||
|
||||
d. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or may be interpreted
|
||||
as a limitation upon, or waiver of, any privileges and immunities
|
||||
that apply to the Licensor or You, including from the legal
|
||||
processes of any jurisdiction or authority.

## Local preview
|
||||
|
||||
This repo includes scripts to build and preview the contents of this repository.
|
||||
|
||||
**NOTE**: Please note that if you reference pages from other repositoreis, such links will be broken in this local preview as it only builds this repository. If you want to rebuild the whole Fedora Docs site, please see [the Fedora Docs build repository](https://pagure.io/fedora-docs/docs-fp-o/) for instructions.
|
||||
|
||||
Both scripts use docker, so please make sure you have it installed on your system. Please see below for instructions.
|
||||
|
||||
To build and preview the site, run:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ ./build.sh && ./preview.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The result will be available at http://localhost:8080
|
||||
|
||||
### Installing docker on Fedora
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ sudo dnf install docker
|
||||
$ sudo systemctl start docker && sudo systemctl enable docker
|
||||
```

|
||||
[abstract]
|
||||
____
|
||||
This section provides guidance on how to select the appropriate installation media for the download.
|
||||
____
|
||||
|
||||
As already mentioned, the https://fedoraproject.org[Fedora Project website] provides all the Fedora Downloads.
|
||||
The landing page lists all available Editions, Spins, Labs, etc. as described in xref::getting-started.adoc[Getting started], and links to the proper details pages.
|
||||
Navigate to the page that covers the Fedora variant you decided to use.
|
||||
|
||||
Now you have to make additional choices as described here.
|
||||
|
||||
* the _architecture of the hardware_ to install Fedora on
|
||||
* the _type of installation media_ that fits your needs best
|
||||
|
||||
== Hardware architecture
|
||||
|
||||
You have to determine: Which architecture is my computer?
|
||||
|
||||
The system architecture is essentially determined by the processor.
|
||||
Fedora officially supports Intel/AMD __**x86_64**__ and ARM __**aarch64**__ architecture.
|
||||
Additionally installation media and Fedora support for PowerPC _ppc64le_ and 'big iron' _s390x_ are available - just in case.
|
||||
|
||||
Installing Fedora using a wrong architecture medium is not possible.
|
||||
Consult your manufacturer's documentation for details on your processor.
|
||||
|
||||
If you already use a Linux distribution on the respective computer, you can enter `uname -m` within a terminal to identify your architecture.
|
||||
If you use another operating system, use your preferred search engine to find out how to identify the architecture on the respective computer.
|
||||
Alternatively, you can search for your hardware (e.g., processor/cpu model, vendor product number of the computer): the processor/cpu determines the architecture.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are not sure about your architecture, you should have a look on the table below: this could help you to indicate what you have.
|
||||
|
||||
[[List-Processor_and_Architecture_Types]]
|
||||
.Processor and architecture types
|
||||
|
||||
[options="header"]
|
||||
|===
|
||||
|Processor manufacturer and types of computer|Architecture type for Fedora
|
||||
|Most computers with Intel and AMD processors; Mac computers before Apple M1; most server, workstation, desktop and laptop type computers; some netbooks and tablets|`x86_64`
|
||||
|Most processors other than Intel and AMD; Mac computers beginning with Apple M1; Raspberry Pi and most comparable devices; most tablets; some netbooks|`ARM® aarch64`
|
||||
|===
|
||||
|
||||
Regarding ARM architecture, Fedora supports only 64-bit architecture, aarch64 or arm8, as of release 37 and newer.
|
||||
The older 32-bit architecture, armhfp or arm7, is dropped.
|
||||
|
||||
== Media Types
|
||||
|
||||
Fedora provides 4 different types of installation media that meet different requirements.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Live images:: Live images ("Live ISO") are designed to boot the computer and to allow you to preview Fedora before installing it. Instead of booting directly into the installer, a live image loads the same environment you will get after installation.
|
||||
+
|
||||
The file type is '__.iso__'. You have to transfer the file to a boot medium, usually an USB stick, or still a CD or DVD.
|
||||
+
|
||||
Use a live image to install your favorite system, test Fedora on new hardware, troubleshoot, or share with friends.
|
||||
+
|
||||
Fedora Workstation, the Fedora Spins and some Fedora Labs are the only ones provided as live images.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Standard images:: Standard images ("Standard ISO") are designed to boot the computer, as well, but boot directly into the installation environment. They include all files needed for the installation and some offer further choices and configuration options.
|
||||
+
|
||||
The file type is '__.iso__'. You have to transfer the file to a boot medium, usually an USB stick, or still a CD or DVD.
|
||||
+
|
||||
Use a standard image to perform an offline installation without any internet connection or the available connection is slow or unstable.
|
||||
+
|
||||
Fedora Server, Fedora IoT, Fedora CoreOS, Fedora Silverblue, and Fedora Kinoite are available as standard images.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Netinstall images:: Netinstall images ("Netinstall ISO") are designed to boot the computer, as well, and boot directly into the installation environment. But they provide just the minimum system files to boot and to connect to the internet. Subsequently the system has to download all files needed for installation from the online Fedora package repositories.
|
||||
+
|
||||
The file type is '__.iso__'. You have to transfer the file to a boot medium, usually an USB stick, or still a CD or DVD.
|
||||
+
|
||||
Use a netinstall image if the system has a stable and fairly fast Internet connection. The installation already accesses the latest updates.
|
||||
+
|
||||
The Netinstall images currently available are:
|
||||
|
||||
* the Fedora Server installation image.
|
||||
* the "Everything ISO" image. This image allows the user to select from a range of desktop environments, and groups of optional software packages. Depending on what software is selected, the resulting install may be the equivalent of one of the Fedora editions or spins, or it may be a customized install to the user's requirements.
|
||||
|
||||
Filesystem disk images:: Disk images provide a _preinstalled and preconfigured_ ready to run file system for a specific runtime environment like a virtual machine, e.g. cloud system, or specific hardware like single board computers (SBC), e.g. Raspberry Pi or its alternatives.
|
||||
+
|
||||
The file type is mostly either '__.raw__' or '__.qcow2__'. You have to use a runtime specific installation program, provided either by Fedora (e.g. in case of SBCs) or the runtime provider (e.g. one of the cloud systems like Amazon AWS).
|
||||
+
|
||||
Use a filesystem disk image if you want to use one of the intended runtime environments.

[abstract]
|
||||
This guide intends to provide an overview of and an introduction to installing Fedora. It takes into account users with varying levels of knowledge and experience with Fedora, and therefore covers greater detail than some users are likely to require. This should specifically help new users to complete the installation process without interruptions. Users may skip sections about familiar topics.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
== Introduction
|
||||
|
||||
This guide covers installation of Fedora, a Linux distribution built on free and open source software. This manual helps you install Fedora on desktops, laptops, and servers. The installation system is easy to use, even if you lack previous knowledge of Linux or computer networks. If you select default options, Fedora provides a complete operating system, with solid _security settings_ and _including productivity applications_, Internet utilities, and administration tools.
|
||||
|
||||
Fedora is provided in several variants tailored for special purposes. We call them *Editions*, *Atomic Desktops* and *Spins*.
|
||||
|
||||
_Because of these differences, there is no single installation procedure._
|
||||
|
||||
Most Fedora variants, but not all, use Anaconda, the Fedora installer, but in a way that is quite different in detail.
|
||||
|
||||
Therefore, _each edition describes the installation separately_. Most spins are based on one of the editions, mostly Fedora Workstation, and use the corresponding installation procedure.
|
||||
|
||||
Nevertheless, there are some preparatory steps that are almost the same for all variants, e.g. you need to prepare installation media.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
== Fedora variants and how to install
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
=== Atomic Desktops
|
||||
|
||||
Atomic desktops use a read-only root filesystem. This means that every installation is identical to every other installation of the same version.
|
||||
The operating system root filesystem on disk is exactly the same from one machine to the next, and it never changes as it is used.
|
||||
|
||||
Atomic desktops use the Anaconda installer, but have some limitations on installation options compared to Editions and Spins. The
|
||||
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-silverblue/installation/[Silverblue installation documentation] describes these limitations,
|
||||
which apply to all the Fedora atomic desktop variants
|
||||
|
||||
Fedora Silverblue::
|
||||
An atomic desktop variant of Fedora, featuring the GNOME desktop, and an excellent platform for container-focused workflows.

|
||||
|
||||
=== Labs
|
||||
|
||||
Fedora Labs::
|
||||
Curated bundles of purpose-driven software, maintained by community members. The respective compilations are either installed as independent, complete Fedora versions or complement existing Fedora installations.
|
||||

|
||||
https://labs.fedoraproject.org
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
== General preparations
|
||||
According to different usage and purposes the variation not only differ in their installation process, they differ in administration and usage. To learn how to use an installed Fedora system, see the manuals available at the specific variant documentation pages.
|
||||
|
||||
Regarding installation, be especially prepared for the fact that each variant requires additional post-installation processes.
|
||||
|
||||
Despite all the differentiation, some things are the same for all variants.
|
||||
|
||||
=== Download the software deliverables
|
||||
|
||||
The differentiation according to tasks and areas of application corresponds to a differentiation of the download options and the further processing.
|
||||
|
||||
To find out more about Fedora download options, see xref:fedora-downloads-info.adoc[Fedora Downloads].
|
||||
|
||||
Visit the link:++https://fedoraproject.org/++[Fedora Project website] to download a distribution file.
|
||||
|
||||
=== Prepare boot media
|
||||
|
||||
An install on hardware usually requires to transfer the download file to a bootable medium, mostly a USB stick.
|
||||
xref:preparing-boot-media.adoc#fedora_media_writer[Fedora Media Writer] is the tool of choice, developed and supported by Fedora.
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively you may try https://etcher.balena.io/[balenaEtcher] or the https://www.ventoy.net/en/index.html[Ventoy project], both available for Linux, macOS, and Windows.
|
||||
The latter is specifically useful if you want to have several distributions and versions available on one stick.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
== Getting Additional Help
|
||||
|
||||
If you encounter any problems which are not described in documentation, you might get help from members of the community - developers, users, and others.
|
||||
There are many ways to get help: the Ask Fedora website, mailing lists, forums, or IRC.
|
||||
|
||||
The discussion forum https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/c/ask/6[Ask Fedora] is the recommended way to start with.
|
||||
See xref:index.adoc#_getting_help[Getting help] for detailed information.
|
||||
|
||||
=== NVIDIA
|
||||
|
||||
If you use an NVIDIA GPU and are experiencing significant visual issues while running Fedora from a live USB, it could be that your GPU is not fully compatible with the FOSS Nouveau driver.
|
||||
One possible workaround for this situation is to do the following 3 steps:
|
||||
|
||||
1. During the live USB boot process, hit `e` at the GRUB boot menu.
|
||||
2. Find the line that begins with `linux`, and add `nouveau.modeset=0` to the end of that line.
|
||||
3. Press `<ctrl>` + `x` to resume the boot process.

The Fedora documentation provides extensive information on how to install and use the Fedora operating system and the software packaged by the Fedora Project. Fedora is a large project. Therefore, the focus here is on basic explanations and references to detailed documentation of the various subprojects. A special focus is on making it easier for new users to get started.

"The biggest deficiency in free operating systems is not in the software — it is the lack of good free manuals that we can include in these systems.”footnote:[Free Software and Free Manuals, available from link:http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-doc.html[]]
|
||||
____
|
||||
|
||||
Free Software has produced outstanding technical achievements and solutions over the past decades. Just one example is the Apache server, which is used today by the vast majority of websites and provides the entire Internet with information. This quickly overshadows a fact that Richard Stallman emphasized as early as 1997:

||||
|
||||
_"The biggest deficiency in free operating systems is not in the software — it is the lack of good free manuals that we can include in these systems.” footnote:[Free Software and Free Manuals, available from link:http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-doc.html[]]_
|
||||
|
||||
It is this spirit that inspires the Fedora documentation team to do the often tough and time-consuming work on our documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
You'll find here a bunch of information:
|
||||
|
||||
xref:getting-started.adoc[Getting started]::
|
||||
*First time with Fedora Linux?* New users find here extensive information to get Fedora up and running.
|
||||
xref:system-upgrade.adoc[System upgrade]::
|
||||
*Do you already have a Fedora Linux edition or Spin up and running?* You don't need to reinstall your system to get the new release. Fedora has put a lot of work into making an in-place update reliable and fully automated.
|
||||
|

== Getting help
|
||||
There are many places on the internet that can help you when you encounter a problem not described in this chapter: discussion boards, blogs, IRC, and more. Some of the more popular places where you can find help include:
|
||||
|
||||
* link:++https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/c/ask/6++[Ask Fedora] - Fedora's knowledge base and community-driven question-and-answer site, available in multiple languages
|
||||

|
||||
====
|
||||
|
||||
The above list is by no means complete - you can find help in many other places as well.
|
||||
Additional information about available resources such as Matrix rooms and mailing lists is available at xref:project:ROOT:communications.adoc[].
|
||||
|
||||
====
|
||||
|
||||
Before you open a new discussion or ask anyone for help on IRC, you should always do some research on your own. If you are encountering an issue, there is usually a good chance that someone else ran into the same problem before you and published a solution somewhere. Opening a discussion about something already explained elsewhere, or asking a common question that has been answered many times before, is not likely to result in a friendly, constructive response.
|
||||
|
||||
When you ask for help troubleshooting problems related to the installation, you may be asked to provide log files generated by the installer. Consult the corresponding documentation to learn how to access a suitable log file.
|
||||
|
||||
// ToDo: Add information about ihow to handle log files, see Anaconda doc and planned "troubleshooting" section in QuickDocs.

= Preparing Boot Media
|
||||
The Fedora docs team
|
||||
:revnumber: unknown
|
||||
:revdate: currently slightly out of date
|
||||
|
||||
Fedora images are `Hybrid ISOs` and can be used to create installation media with both optical and USB disks, for booting on both BIOS and UEFI systems.
|
||||
|
||||
== Fedora Media Writer
|
||||
|
||||
[application]*Fedora Media Writer* has been significantly improved and is now the official, tested and supported way to make bootable media. [application]*Fedora Media Writer* supports Linux, macOS, and Windows. It is an easy way to make
|
||||
bootable USB media to install Fedora (or other operating systems). Using [application]*Fedora Media Writer* is strongly encouraged, although other USB media creation software can work as well.
|
||||
|
||||
Some of the new additions to [application]*Fedora Media Writer* are that Fedora Workstation and Server are easily and quickly accessible from the selection on the main screen. Further choices are available if you select the button below _Custom image_. This offers a selection of various Fedora Spins, such as Xfce or Mate.
|
||||
|
||||
Historically, universal USB creation tools, such as [application]*Unetbootin*, are a popular way to create USB installers from ISOs intended for optical media. They typically create a filesystem on the USB drive by extracting files from the image, and writing [application]*syslinux* bootloader to the device.
|
||||
|
||||
These methods circumvent the boot-loader configuration built into Fedora images, which are pre-partitioned and designed to boot on UEFI systems with SecureBoot enabled as well as BIOS systems, and thus they do not produce consistent results with Fedora images, especially on UEFI systems.
|
||||
|
||||
The best results are produced by utilities that use a direct write method and do not modify the Fedora image.
|
||||
|
||||
[WARNING]
|
||||
====
|
||||
Always think twice before writing an image to the device. The media creation methods described in this article are destructive.
|
||||
All data on the USB stick are deleted during the process, so make sure you have a back up of the data on the USB stick. Double check that you have selected correct device to write the image to!

|
||||
|
||||
=== Installing and running Fedora Media Writer
|
||||
|
||||
==== On Fedora
|
||||
|
||||
On Fedora 25 or later, [application]*Fedora Media Writer* is available in the default repository. You can use `dnf` to install the
|
||||
package.
|
||||
|
||||
. To install the [application]*Fedora Media Writer* using:

|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
==== On macOS
|
||||
|
||||
. Download the latest Macintosh Disk Image (the package will have a .dmg extension) from link:++https://fedoraproject.org++[fedoraproject.org]. The server automatically detects the running system and offers a correct package for your macOS.
|
||||
|
||||
. Open the `.dmg` file, and press and hold the kbd:[Ctrl] key while clicking on the [application]*Fedora Media Writer* application.
|
||||
|
||||
. Press "`Open`" in the pop-up menu.

=== Other methods to create a live USB
|
||||
|
||||
Using the *Fedora Media Writer* is highly recommended for everybody, because it offers a reliable way to create a live USB stick for Fedora installation.
|
||||
|
||||
However, some experienced users may prefer to go through the creation process manually. If you decide to do so, you have to download the installation images and use an application to write them onto the USB stick.
|
||||
|
||||
[NOTE]
|
||||
====
|
||||
If you have downloaded and verified the installation images manually, you still can write them onto the USB stick using *Fedora Media Writer*.

[[sect-verifying-images]]
|
||||
==== Verifying the Downloaded Image
|
||||
|
||||
Because transmission errors or other problems may corrupt the Fedora image you have downloaded, it is important to verify the file's integrity. After the images are created, an operation is performed on the file that produces a value called a `checksum` using a complex mathematical algorithm. The operation is sufficiently complex that *any change* to the original file will produce a different checksum.
|
||||
|
||||
By calculating the image's `checksum` on your own computer and comparing it to the original `checksum`, you can verify the image has not been tampered with or corrupted. The original checksum values are provided at link:++https://fedoraproject.org/security/++[], and are [command]#gpg# signed to demonstrate their integrity.
|
||||

||||

=== Writing the images to USB media
|
||||
|
||||
==== Creating USB media with [application]*GNOME Disks*
|
||||
. On a system with [application]*GNOME*, or with the [package]*gnome-disk-utility* package installed, open `Disks` using the system menu.
|
||||
|
||||
. Click your USB device in the left column.
|
||||
|
||||
. Click the menu icon in the upper right corner of the window, and choose the `Restore Disk Image` option.
|
||||
|
||||
. Navigate to your image file and click `Start Restoring`. After a few minutes, it will report the process is complete and your installation media will be ready to use.
|
||||
|
||||
==== Creating USB Media on the Linux command line
|
||||
. Open a terminal window and insert the usb drive.
|
||||
|
||||
. Find the `device node` assigned to the drive. In the example below, the drive is given `sdd`.

[WARNING]
|
||||
====
|
||||
Pay extreme attention to the source (`if=`) and target (`of=`) device. The `dd` command destroys all data on the
|
||||
target device. If you made a mistake, you could lose important data.
|
||||
====
|
||||
|
||||
=== Creating a Boot CD or DVD
|
||||
In addition to creating a bootable USB flash drive, you can also use the provided ISO images to create bootable optical media (a CD or DVD). This approach may be necessary when installing Fedora on an older system which cannot boot from USB.
|
||||
|
||||
[NOTE]
|
||||
====
|
||||
|
||||
The exact steps you need to take to burn a bootable CD or DVD from an ISO image will vary depending on what disc burning software you use. This procedure only offers a general overview.
|
||||
|
||||
====
|
||||
|
||||
. Insert a blank CD or DVD into your system's CD or DVD burner.
|
||||
|
||||
. Open your system's burning software - for example, [application]*Brasero* on Fedora systems with [application]*GNOME* desktop environment, or [application]*Nero* on Windows systems. In the software's main menu, find an option which lets you burn an ISO image to a disc. For example, in [application]*Brasero*, this option is `Burn image` in the main menu on the left side of the window.
|
||||
|
||||
. When prompted, select the ISO image of Fedora to be burned, and the CD or DVD burner with a blank disc inside (if you have more than one drive).
|
||||
|
||||
. Confirm your selection, and wait for the disc to be burned.

= Upgrading Your Current System
|
||||
The Fedora docs team
|
||||
:revnumber: F39
|
||||
:revdate: 2023-11-27
|
||||
|
||||
This chapter explains how to upgrade your existing Fedora installation to the current release.
|
||||
There are two basic ways to do so:
|
||||
|
||||
Automatic upgrade using [application]*dnf system upgrade*::
|
||||
The preferred way to upgrade your system is an automatic upgrade using the [application]*dnf system upgrade* utility.
|
||||
For information on performing an automatic upgrade, see link: xref:quick-docs:ROOT:upgrading-fedora-offline.adoc[Upgrading Fedora using the DNF system upgrade plugin].
|
||||
|
||||
Manual Reinstallation::
|
||||
Instead of relying on `dnf system upgrade`, you can _reinstall_ the latest version of Fedora.
|
||||
This involves booting the installer as if you were performing a clean installation, letting it detect your existing Fedora system, and overwriting the root partition while preserving data on other partitions and volumes.
|
||||
The same process can also be used to reinstall the system, if you need to do so for any reason.
|
||||
For detailed information, see _Manual System Upgrade or Reinstallation_.
|
||||
|
||||
//xref:sect-upgrading-fedora-manual-reinstall[Manual System Upgrade or Reinstallation].
|
||||
|
||||
[IMPORTANT]
|
||||
====
|
||||
|
||||
Always back up your data before performing an upgrade or reinstalling your system, no matter which method you choose.
|
||||

|
||||
== Manual System Upgrade or Reinstallation
|
||||
|
||||
Unfortunately, we have not written this chapter yet, and there is no dedicated documentation about a manual reinstall on the Wiki, either.
|
||||
In the meantime before we fix this, you can try to start the installation normally (from a boot CD/DVD/USB), select manual partitioning in your installer, and reuse existing partitions instead of destroying them and creating new ones.
|
||||
The instructions at _Manual Partitioning_ should in most cases be easy to adapt for this.
|
||||
|
||||
//xref:install/Installing_Using_Anaconda.adoc#sect-installation-gui-manual-partitioning[Manual Partitioning] should in most cases be easy to adapt for this.
