Installed F32 on two machines last sunday; I have experienced freezing of the machines and I had to hard reboot, Anyone experiencing same issue??
I have experienced freezes shortly after running dnf on one of my machines. It has nothing to do with GNOME, it happens even in runlevel 3 (multi-user). I found this bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1826091
It claims the problem is fixed with kernel 5.6.7 which is in testing, I haven't tried it yet.
https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2020-21c51fd821
Fortunately, despite it happening shortly after a dnf transaction, I haven't seen any signs of the transaction being corrupted. AFAICT everything in the transaction is written to disk before the freeze, even though other file system changes (such as bash history) often aren't.
Oh, and BTW, the reporter of the bug commented that he thought it should be a 32 blocker, but didn't mark it as such. I was noticing similar freezes in my 32 and Rawhide VMs a few weeks ago, but they went away, presumably when the fixes made it into the kernel.
furthermore if I use dnfdragora for updating it crashes immediately :-( Antonio Montagnani

The machine experiencing the freezes is running the 5.6.6 kernel (the F32 release version), which is also the current stable kernel in F31, so I'd expect some people running F31 to also be seeing the freezes right now. The previous F31 kernel was 5.5.17, I don't know if that was affected.

At the risk of being flamed yet again, I'll point out that the Fedora Test list is the place to discuss this sort of thing until F32 is actually released. The people who might be able to help are more likely to be found there, since that's what it's for.

I'm not certain, but I thought it was considered okay to discuss a Beta version of an upcoming release on the users list. Besides, by the time most people read this thread, F32 will have been officially released (just a few hours from now).
I might be thinking of #fedora on IRC. The topic says "Topic for #fedora is: #Fedora F30, F31, F32 Beta end user support".

It's generally considered not right. This list is for the current *release*, the test list is for the not yet released.

That kind of thing does muddy the water, though. But still, you're better off trying to debug an unreleased version on the test list. As Patrick said, that's where everyone else who's already been dealing with it will be.
And until it actually is released, it's still unreleased. Something might happen that prevents it being released, or there might be a delay. And even if it is released on schedule, you'll find most users on this list unfamiliar with an only-just-released version.
Fedora 32 is official, so this discussion can continue on this list. Anyway, it seems that same issue might be in F31, as the bug reported by Andre is quite old Antonio Montagnani
