fedora 32 live DVD crashes
by Michael Hennebry
I've trying to run Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-32-1.6.iso
on my HP Compac dc5800 Small Form Factor.
It kernel panics with the message that it attempted to kill init
or that it attempted to kill the idle task.
In the former case, it gives exit code 0x00000009.
For several months,
I've been running Centos 7 with no difficulty in booting,
except for needing acpi=off .
I've needed that on every computer I've ever owned.
I know roughly what it means,
but have no idea why it would matter.
The live DVD, including Troubleshoot, crashes with or without acpi=off .
How do I boot?

Noticed in change in action after upgrade from 30 to 31.
by Michael D. Setzer II
Just upgraded a machine and noticed that with version
30, when I had a process running in a terminal window,
when it completed it would report that the command
finished, and would provide the scripts name. After the
upgrade, the messages now just show bash completed
rather than the specific command?
Just cosmetic, but wondering why it changed, and if
there are any options. Sometimes have a number of
things running, and would be nice to know which exact
one finished.
Thanks.

Re: Restart F32 WiFi on ThinkPad P72
by Samuel Sieb
Bringing this back to the list. The message I'm replying to was too
large for the list, so he sent it directly to me.

It's actually quite easy. If you run "systemctl -b" just like that, it
pipes the output to "less" for you to use. In there, you can press the
"/" key and enter the text you want to search for. You can type "1G" to
go to the top and "G" to go to the bottom. See the man page for details.

That's not really useful. I was trying to get the info from the wifi
device being initialized.

That's not normal. Normally you can have both ethernet and wifi
connected at the same time. But for some reason, your laptop has a
physical wifi disable when the ethernet cable is plugged in.

It's the connection that you saw is managed, not the device. What do
"nmcli d" and "nmcli d show wlan0" give?

Ok, so that confirms that it really is a hardware switch connected to
the ethernet port. I've never seen that before, it's really weird.

by Adrian Sevcenco
Hi! I have a very strange situaion with a sandisk extreme sd card:
while in windows i can use it just fine in f31 i have the following:
lsblk shows :
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
mmcblk0 179:0 0 59.5G 0 disk
dmesg says:
[ 641.162507] blk_update_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk0, sector 0 op 0x0:(READ) flags 0x0 phys_seg 1 prio class 0
[ 641.367806] Buffer I/O error on dev mmcblk0, logical block 0, async page read
[ 641.367869] ldm_validate_partition_table(): Disk read failed.
and trying to make a part table:
parted -s -a optimal /dev/mmcblk0 mklabel msdos
Error: Input/output error during read on /dev/mmcblk0
Error: Input/output error during write on /dev/mmcblk0
so, anyone any idea what is going on? seriosly, linux cannot do what windows can???
Thank you!
