[fedora-arm] Re: Fedora-Minimal-36-1.5 on raspberry pi 2B
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.

[fedora-arm] Re: Fedora Minimal 36 installation on raspberry pi 2B
Irene, You may need to give microdnf a try, as DNF will use all of your 1GB of RAM and get killed by the out-of-memory routines. # rpm - ivh http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/updates/36/Everything/armhfp/Packages/m/microdnf-3.9.0-1.fc36.armv7hl.rpm # sudo microdnf upgrade --refresh -y There will be a move to DNF5, which will remove some of the memory pressure and improve speed, but it's not scheduled until Fedora 39. Please note that Fedora 36 is also the last release for ARMHFP (RPI 2B), if I recall correctly. I hope this helps! -Ben On Fri, 2023-01-20 at 22:39 +, Irene Diez wrote: > Hello there, > > I'm trying to install Fedora-Minimal-36-1.5.armhfp.raw on my > raspberry pi 2B.

[fedora-arm] Fedora Minimal 36 installation on raspberry pi 2B
Hello there, I'm trying to install Fedora-Minimal-36-1.5.armhfp.raw on my raspberry pi 2B. Installation was a success but the device runs out of memory when trying to install anything via dnf and I get kicked out of the shell. I've followed the installation instructions in https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Raspberry_Pi#Manual, which specify that this model is supported since Fedora 29; so, is it there anything that I'm missing for Fedora to work?

[fedora-arm] Re: Fedora-Minimal-36-1.5 on raspberry pi 2B
Unfortunately this isn't a matter of arm vs x86_64, it's a matter of the dnf with it's repo's have gotten too big to fit in memory. This is the discussion on the devel list "Heads-up / for discussion: dnf not working with 1G of RAM or less" https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/de...@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/CRREDQUPPJYWVRMA4DOKYU2KZZLKC4D5/#EGO43HCCD6F5Y5GFANFUNUNDEJTWZITU It's a bit of a long read. I did see two or three work-arounds. 1 - Add a swap partition and/or swapfile 2 - Use microdnf (but you have to figure out how to install it. see workaround 1) 3 - Use dnf5 (see workaround 2, and it's still missing some features) There might be other workarounds that I missed. As I said, it's a bit of a read.

https://developer.arm.com/documentation/ddi0464/f/Programmers-Model/About-the-programmers-model?lang=en https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/raspberry-pi/ 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.
