Has anyone had success installing the nVidia drivers in F21 yet?
I am meeting some strange issues following the instructions for
installing them in F20. Including this page

displaying while booting after installing the drivers.

I will generate some better diagnostics tonight.

 I wrote the CommonBugs note blind - I couldn't test that the proposed
 workaround would actually work as I haven't reproduced the bug.

 However, it shouldn't happen if you use a non-live install image, so
I'd
 suggest that. You can use the 'Server' network install image to
install
 any package set, not just Server, so try using that.
