Run isohybrid on the image before dd'ing it.
It's in the syslinux package.

Thanks, I've already read them all. However, some of the information
given is not precise enough or could be misinterpreted. For ex., to me it
looks like that the GNOME desktop will be the only DE supported (and
installable). 

From what I've read, it goes very much in a way which I don't
like (appifying Linux and more). Since I've not yet done the upgrade to 
F20 and since there's only one of my machines left which actually 
runs Fedora, I guess that's it for me so far.

 hi everybody,

 I'm not be able to boot fedora 20 x64 or x32 from usb (I tried fedora
 kde live, fedora complete and centos 6.5 minimal)
 I used a lot of software like liveusb-creator, unetbootin and the shell
 command like dd

 the pendrive is formatted in vfat and the client is a veriton N281G (on
 the bios I see that support removable devices)
 When you are copying complete image to flash drive, you don't need to
 format it. (useless action, you will overwrite it later)

ok


 the shell command is: dd if=/dir/file.iso of=/dev/sdx1 bs=1M
 with liveusb-creator and the unetbootin the steps are via gui
 Not sure for centos images (I think older ones are not compatible to be
 directly copied to device, and don't know for new ones =7. But fedora
 should work fine, and when you do it, you don't copy your image to the
 partition, but to the device, so of=/dev/sdx1 is wrong, (1,2,3 ) is
 a partition number. 
 You need something like this 
 # dd if=fedora_iso_image of=/dev/sdx  (where X can be a,b,c,...)
 Be careful with this method it will overwrite device with data of size
 of the image ... 
 More info on writing usb images 
 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_and_use_Live_USB 

it works



 And always when you download ISO images verify them 
 https://fedoraproject.org/verify 
 so, where I wrong?
 let me know, thanks in advance

Why not set up a compose key? Then you can make all kinds of symbols,
foreign language characters, fractions, whatever. ™ is just one of the symbols
you can make easily. (Compose, then t then m.)  Look up Gtk Compose Table
in Google to get a long list of possibilities.

battery indicator

2014-09-27 Thread Ranjan Maitra
Hi,

I have a new Dell Precision M3800 laptop and I am trying to figure out
why the battery indicator does not work (find anything). Any suggestions
as to how I can get this going? batti for instance is installed but
finds nothing. However, there is a battery in the laptop, and does hold
charge for a few hours at least.

I am running a fully updated Fedora 20 system.

Any help is of course very appreciated.

Many thanks,
Ranjan

Fedup 19 to 20 problems

2014-09-27 Thread Frank McCormick


  Ran Fedup today to upgrade my 19 system to 20 - all the packages are 
downloaded, the fedup kernel is installed...and I have 2 new selections 
of the grub screen fedup and fedup rescue. However neither will complete
the boot so the upgrade can go ahead. The boot stalls just after a 
message about Selinux not being found or something to that effect.


Need some advice on what to do

  Well the link didn't describe my exact problem but it gave me a clue 
- I added selinux=0 to the kernel command line---the boot had stalled on 
the sellinux problem. Fedup then eventually ended up installing 
everything and so far, with the exception of google-chrome which I had 
to reinstall everything ***seems*** to have gone well. A nice feeling 
after reading some of the horror stories around fedup :)



Thanks

strange issue with ssh on F20 on DSL/VPN

2014-09-27 Thread Ranjan Maitra
So, I have a strange issue.

I have a local machine (laptop) connecting remotely to several desktops
including one that is a fully updated F20 (this is the one I have total
control over and therefore my choice of distributions). The others are
RHEL5's or Centos6. Connections are only permitted to all
machines through VPN (university policy). So, I on my new DSL
connection (which is wired and will replace my cable modem connection)
but currently both are active.  

Anyway, I can connect to all machines when I am on the cable modem
(using wireless) and VPN unlimited number of times. 

I can connect to all the non-F20 machines using ssh unlimited times
when I am on DSL and VPN.

However, I can only connect once t the F20 machine when I am on DSL and
the VPN. There is no way I can connect directly. (I can connect to one
of the non-F20 machines by ssh and from there connect to the F20 machine
however.) I can only connect directly again to the F20 machine by
ssh from my local machine by rebooting the remote F20 machine. And that
too for only one time. After I log out, I can not connect again.

What should I looking for? /var/log/secure does not have any entry when
I can not connect (however it does have an entry when I cancel the
connection by Ctrl-C -- Connection closed).

Any suggestions as to how to diagnose and solve this problem?

Sorry for bringing forth the strangest of questions. I am hoping that
someone more familiar with networking issues will have some idea and
suggestions on what is going on.

Many thanks and best wishes,
Ranjan

disconnecting and reconnecting the VPN. But why should this be so? And
also why does this not happen with the other machines that are not
running Fedora but older Centos/RHEL distributions. And why does it not
matter (and works fine) on a Wifi/VPN connection through a cable modem.
