Wait another month or two.  Otherwise make sure you have a bugzilla account
and be prepared to write a bug report if it does not.

I did what you suggested for F37-F38.  It mostly worked.

It broke my USB Ethernet which was fixed about a month later after I wrote
a fairly detailed bug report.

[fedora-arm] Re: Le Potato?

2023-03-29 Thread Gregory Carter
I doubt it.

ARM doesn't have a standardized layout for BIOS, memory maps etc.

So you can't build ARN distros under the assumption they will work like a
PC with a AMD or Intel processor.

[fedora-arm] Re: Fedora Minimal 36 installation on raspberry pi 2B

2023-02-20 Thread Gregory Carter
DNF no longer has sufficient resources on my PI 3, after a recent update,
to work anymore.

The slooow creap of fixes, patches and related support elements to make
ARM a well supported option on Fedora is taking its toll.

I know microdnf has been discussed a few times, but here is another
alternative which worked for me.

Another way of dealing with dnf memory issues is to add swap space using a
swap file on my Raspberry PI 3+

This corrects a memory deficit of about 200MB on my PI 3's working set of
physical RAM pages, which kicks me out of the remote shell.

Here is the steps I used to start using dnf again:

I decided I would put the swap file off the /mnt so I made a directory for
it:
mkdir /mnt/swapfiles

Then I made the swapfile I picked 5G, if you don't have that sort of space
you might need to experiment with an appropriate size, maybe 2G?
fallocate -l 5G /mnt/swapfiles/swpf1

An Alternative is to use dd to make the swp if you happen to be
running a slimmed down installation and do not have fallocate
installed.
dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/swapfiles/swpf1 bs=1024 count=5048576

Set the access rights on the swapfile like so:
chmod 600 /mnt/swapfiles/swpf1

Tell Linux about the swapfile:
mkswap /mnt/swapfiles/swpf1

Activate the swapfile:
swapon /mnt/swapfiles/swpf1

I only use the swap file when I am loading or patching with DNF, so I
did not put the swapfile configuration into my fstab file.

So I just execute a swapon before I do a "dnf update".

My reason for doing so is to eliminate any unwanted writes to the
sdcard that are not absolutely required.

Which helps extend the life of the sdcard.

If you want to add the swapfile so that it is always on, you have to
add a line to the /etc/fstab file like so:
/mnt/swapfiles/swpf1 swap swap defaults 0 0

i hope you found this helpful.  I know I did.  :-)

2023-01-20 Thread Gregory Carter
Oh thats a easy fix.  Just dnf update a couple of packages at a time, don't
try to do it all at once.

i.e. don't do a "dnf update"

Do a "dnf update kernel" for example.

If you can't run dnf for even one package update I would install something
else as you are going to run into more problems than just dnf.

Thats just the START of your problems.

I do not believe that is supported platform for F37 out of the box.

You may have to build a custom kernel/package set on something that small
to run F37.

1Gig is really scraping the bottom of the barrel to run the default image
you downloaded.

Plus I would use the raw image, not the armhfp.

But to start  I would strip out all of the desktop components in the image
like KDE/GNOME/X and Wayland.

[fedora-arm] Re: Watchdog and raspberrypi

2023-01-08 Thread Gregory Carter
For best results I use a out of band network device to cut power to devices
and reboot them when they fail the watchdog criteria.

Normally they stop pinging or a service isn't responding after a NAGIOS
plugin attempt to restart.

I would have a look at webpowerswitch.com

I use this with PCS and a GFS2 cluster for enforcing and recovering
fencing.   Works well.

2022-08-12 Thread Gregory Carter
I couldn't do such a thing without a 10Gig Ethernet to power the systems I
use with Gluster and GFS.  They both run pretty smoothly on such an
environment.

My application is a large iSCSi domain.

For a very small network I would think it wouldn't be a problem.

How small though you would have to try and see.  Gluster/GFS thier ilk are
not very forgiving on frugal systems.

Beware.

Okay so, I managed to get it to work, by using the --addkey option as you
don't need a display once the pie is on the network.

That being the case I would update the install image with a refresh.
Wasted way way too much time and the documentation needs a refresh as well
as it is a bit confusing.

Most of the issues I had with F36 arm went away after a update.

It is in evaluation phase now so if ti performs as well as F35 does I will
probably move my hat over to it.

2022-07-28 Thread Gregory Carter
It would seem there are many different documentation locations for ARM
which I am trying to figure out which one is canonical.

These two seem to differ:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Installation (One I tried
first.)

then this one

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/iot/physical-device-setup/

Which one is the correct one?

I will try that image out shortly.

2022-07-25 Thread Gregory Carter
I downloaded the Fedora-Server-dvd-aarch64-36-1.5.iso and the used the
arm-image-installer to write the install image to a sdcard using the
following installation options:

--target=rpi3 --resizefs

I am trying Fedora36 out as the project I have is working fine on the
other sdcard I have with Fedora34 on it.

2022-07-25 Thread Gregory Carter
This is a new install.

I downloaded the server image.

Hitting the alternate console I can see CMA errors being posted.

On the primary console I get a mouse pointer, but its just a black screen.

There seems to be GUI elements posted that I can't see as moving the mouse
around changes the pointer from a arrow to a finger.

The bootup looks like it went fine.  Looks like it is at a post setup
screen of some kind.

If there is specific info needed I can post that would help?

[fedora-arm] Fedora 36 ARM Issues on Startup

2022-07-24 Thread Gregory Carter
I seem to be getting a black screen on bootup.

This is running on a Canakit PI3B+

Looks like a CMA error.

What size screen was this public image tested on?  The screen I connected
was a 1920x1080 resolution.

Does it need to be smaller than that?

Can you set the CMA higher before install time? If so what is the proper
values for a 1920x1080 screen?
