Would CC BY-ND [1] be the most appropriate, for photos? What about CC

An upgrade to Beowulf went very smoothly but since upgrading I notice
that the fans are always running. Although the air temperature is about
25°C the cores seem to run much hotter than necessary, pushing 70°C or
hotter. The system is not really under any load. What should I be

It might help to have the same level of detail for /etc/os-release on
both ascii and beowulf. That would allow a more standardized approach
to automatically detecting the versions. Perhaps the same should apply

I've installed Ascii in a Qemu VM and qemu dies each and every time I
try to connect to it using SSH via a forwarded port. This crash also
happens each and every time with other Guests, such as CentOS 7, and
with either Ascii or Beowulf as a host. It also happens with known

Is there a current guide to installing Beowulf on a fresh machine in one
move? Or must Ascii go first and then followed by an in-place upgrade?
