I have seen dnf fail to work on my 2GiB Rpi 4 with f36. What I did to workaround this was install the kernel on its own, then dnf update the rest. So it’s only 1GiB systems that are effected. I also have a 1GiB digital ocean VM that happens to not see this issue. I suspect it may be certain packages that make this more likely to fail.

[fedora-arm] Add LUKS disk to an Raspberry Pi 4 install
I'm trying to build a RPi4 system that uses a LUKS encrypted disk. But I cannot get the volume to be unlocked when the system boots. I have install Fedora-Minimal-34-1.2.aarch64.raw.xz to with arm-image-installer --target=rpi4 and that boots. That I have added a new partition to that sdcard that I setup using this command from Fedora 34 x86_86 system. cryptsetup \ --type luks2 \ --cipher xchacha20,aes-adiantum-plain64 \ --hash sha256 \ --iter-time 5000 \ --pbkdf argon2i \ luksFormat ${DEVICE} I got these settings from a blog on setting up crypt for debian on raspberry pi. I add an entry to /etc/crypttab for the volume. When I boot the system I am not prompted for the password to unlock the volume as I was expecting. Looking in journalctl -b 0 I see these lines: Apr 06 01:01:36 clef.chelsea.private systemd[1]: dev-disk- by\x2duuid-8c2519ae\x2d78a9\x2d44b0\x2d871f\x2d0aa2422de03a.device: Job dev- disk-by\x2duuid-8c2519ae\x2d78a9\x2d44b0\x2d871f\x2d0aa2422de03a.device/start timed out.

Once I log in I can open the volume and mount it $ cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/mmcblk0p4 clef-root $ mount /dev/mapper/clef-root /mnt I have tried updating the initrd with: dracut --force.

[fedora-arm] RPi4 and support for RTC DS3231
I have an RPi4 running Fedora 38 with kernel 6.5.6-200.fc38.aarch64. So far I figured out that I have to add this line to the config.txt [pi4] dtoverlay=i2c-rtc,ds3231 But after a reboot I am not seeing any /dev/rtc* devices. Also I'm not seeing any rtc drivers load in lsmod output. Should this work with the Fedora kernel? If so what do I need to do to make the RTC show up?

I missed the link at the end of the config.txt that was Fedora specific. Maybe you could put that Fedora specific comment at the start of config.txt in a future release? I have followed the steps and the RTC is working. I would like to add a section on the RTC to the docs. If that is useful how do I go about doing that? But I have lost the HDMI console. I can ssh into the system and it is otherwise working. I see the boot sequence, u-boot, grub, last message on screen is the Fedoara kernel line announcing its version. After a few seconds where I would expect to see systemd messages instead the monitor goes into standby. Do I need to change setting in config.txt to make the HDMI work?
