I am installing a Fedora 30 from the LiveCD (LXDE) and it is going on spinning for the past 30 minutes while saying "Installing software 100%". Is there anything that I can do to troubleshoot here? I am a little lost because the process is normally a fast one.
At the end of the installation process, the post-installation scripts get run which may take a while. You could switch to a console using "ctrl-alt-f2" and check the processes. I think "alt-f6" gets you back.
Is "ctrl-alt-f2" supposed to work here? It does nothing for me (on the LiveCD). I did poweroff and was led to a grub prompt. I presume that this means that grub did not get installed.
Should I try installing onto legacy boot? The laptop is a 2014 Dell M3800.
Thanks, Ranjan
