How to Install Fedora Linux Version 41 from Start to Finish + Basic Configurations [2024]

[@Digital-Scriptorium]

The "stable" release will be around October 21st.

If you don't have tpm, disable tpm service otherwise boot time will be very long

[@Digital-Scriptorium]

Thank you for the info!

[@kittymoonszz]

Hello!! If I have multiple disks, I have to select all? Or just the one I want to install fedora on, and format the other ones later?

[@Digital-Scriptorium]

Yeah, just the one you want to install it on. Then you can format the other after.

[@kittymoonszz]

@Digital-Scriptorium thanks 🙏🏻

[@Digital-Scriptorium]

@@kittymoonszz no problem! Enjoy! :)

[@colong1158]

The software app is stuck on refresh. CAN YOU HELP?

[@Digital-Scriptorium]

Hmmm, it might be worth trying to do updates via terminal first. Then see if it helps the stability.

Hi how much ram does fedora gnome consume? i have 16gb ram but only have iGPU with processor i5 12450H

[@Digital-Scriptorium]

That should for sure be more than enough hardware to make things peppy. Honestly 8gb would put you in really good territory.

I asked this just now in an older video, im looking everywhere but im lost. The media writer download link just brings me to github, no exe.

[@Digital-Scriptorium]

Hmmm, I just tested it and yes I see it goes to GitHub now. I do see an exe listed as the 3rd option under "Assets". You might have to click the arrow on "Assets" to expand it to show all.

[@OCDGeek128]

@@Digital-Scriptorium Thank you, that worked! They should really fix that so you get the exe directly like before.

[@Digital-Scriptorium]

@@OCDGeek128 I'm wondering if maybe they're midway through moving stuff to GitHub.

Does anybody know if fedora 41 works with timeshift? I have ruined my fedora 40 boot by not listenig to what people say and now i cant successfully do a restore from any of my countless snapshots.

[@Digital-Scriptorium]

I too am curious how you ruined it.

[@kyledupont7711]

Basically, time shift requires @ instead of / in front of certain directories such as your home folder. I was able to create snapshots for the last several months, but when it comes to restoring, it says that it doesn't support it without the @ and you can't change it, aka Time shift will either not attempt to restore, or it will fail if it does

[@Digital-Scriptorium]

@@kyledupont7711 o interesting.

[@kyledupont7711]

​@@Digital-Scriptorium Here is how you can check if you have this problem. Boot into live USB, install timeshift, choose the drive where you have snapshots, attempt to restore one of them. Don't worry you won't even make it to the dry run step. When you select your snapshot and confirm to restore you will get an Unsupported file sub system layout. I spent about 10 hrs trying to somehow manually get a snapshot to work, or to manually reinstall grub with chroot, none of them worked

[@Digital-Scriptorium]

Interesting. I'll have to try it.
