You can download them directly from amazon, one of the options in your media library advanced options is download for installation via usb. That will, however get you an encrypted file 99% of the time (they have a handful of DRM free titles).

Dear Jonathan, If you are enough smart you can understand fedora is able to works with encrypting too each start is able with the UEFI secure boot more again If you have windows installing aside in the same setup in addition If you know whole path bugged about the missing of program i advice to use all path bugged with 'dnf provides' nor 'ldd' also you understand how to repair a lot of problems easily so yes the fedora is broken thus yes none of printscreen because the repairing fedora are poor and i am enough smart for type the problem without attachment of printscreen nor by paste by copy paste, For locate i am agree about that the system is slow for be able to works on the fedora that i try to repair, For chroot fortunately i was able to the repair but after many reboot without success for start both system unfortunately i have happened glibc problems between themself, For my speaking although i am again young however i have work in many meeting where we learn that the english is talk in the reach of the arrow helped by AI, Finally If you want help you are welcome or else leave the discussing here, Have a nice weekend, Regards.

What are you trying to solve? I don’t know what it has to do with encryption. 3.) what is broken with locate? Maybe the database hasn’t been generated yet? Or you are running it from a rescue image?

Virtual Machine USB WIFI adapter
Fedora 38 host with CentOS8 in a virtual machine. Wrestling with networking. I would like to use a USB WIFI adapter dedicated to the virtual machine. The adapter works from the host. When added to the hardware of the virtual machine it is seen by NetworkManager but entering the SSID and password does not connect. Tried restart with the set hardware configuration. NetworkManager shows the WIFI connection as "Last Used" never. ~]$ ip a 1: lo: mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000 link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 ::1/128 scope host valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 2: enp3s0: mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether 52:54:00:d0:98:95 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 3: virbr0: mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state DOWN group default qlen 1000 link/ether 52:54:00:eb:41:ac brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 192.168.122.1/24 brd 192.168.122.255 scope global virbr0 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever A virtual machine with Fedora 38 does not connect either even though the host does.

Instead, they changed the > setting for existing installs, like a F37 -> F38 system upgrade. I read elsewhere that the setting change is to the default. If you had ever changed the power settings the default is not used apparently. The default is used on new installs, and because it is the default also applies to upgrades, as i say, if you had not changed the default power settings. I am not a gnome used so have no direct experience of this change.

Or an inadequate power supply, if a bunch of drives are effected. Some cables are a bad fit, or have become a bad fit after time, and unplug/replug exercising them restores things. Contaminated metal makes for poor connections. A spray with contact cleaner, perhaps even a scrub with a brush, can help some things. Folded/kinked/crushed SATA cables is a problem. They are a transmission line and mangled cables adversely changes their characteristics. Straighten out cable that came folded up from the manufacturer, fashion any bends needed to lay your cables into smooth curves. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.88.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Mar 7 15:41:52 UTC 2023 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
