There are other problems which can cause such behaviour, but inability to boot from a GPT-labelled disk is one of the most likely. If you are affected by this problem, you can work around it by passing the parameter nogpt to the Fedora installer. To do this, at the initial bootloader menu for the Fedora installation, where you can select to install, install in basic graphics mode, boot to the rescue mode and so on, hit the Tab key, then edit the command line for the Fedora installer and add the word nogpt.
We do not have a detailed list of systems which will boot from a GPT-labelled disk only if the protective MBR is marked active, but this seems to be the case with at least some HP machines, some Sony machines, and some Intel motherboards.
On such a system, the more 'drastic' workaround listed above instructing Fedora not to use a GPT disk label at all will work, but you can also try a more limited workaround: install as normal, with a GPT disk label, and then manually set the 'active' flag on the protective MBR. To do so, use the fdisk utility - do not use a utility which actually understands GPT disk labels, as it will edit the attributes of the GPT partition table, not the protective MBR.
You can run the commands from a live Linux Fedora or any other distribution , Fedora's rescue mode, or from a console within the Fedora installer after completing installation but before rebooting - hit ctrl-alt-F2 to access a console.
The rest of the commands toggle the 'active' flag on the first partition, which will almost certainly be the correct one - it is very unlikely the protective MBR will list more than a single partition. The 'w' command writes the changes, so if you want to check, you can run 'p' before 'w', to print the partition table.
Versions of Fedora prior to Fedora 16, and many other operating systems, will by default use the MS-DOS disk label format, and create the first partition on a hard disk at sector This is the space into which the core of the system bootloader must be installed on an MS-DOS labelled disk.
The core part of Fedora 16's bootloader, grub2, may not fit into this 32KiB space, if the required configuration to boot the system is complex. In this case, the core grub2 image must include RAID support, and the inclusion of this makes the core image larger than 32KiB in size. In more 'straightforward' cases, grub2's core image is smaller than 32KiB in size, so this bug will often not be encountered.
The bug only occurs when installing Fedora 16 to an existing partition layout and hence also when upgrading an existing configuration which requires a complex grub2 core image. When you encounter the bug, Fedora's installer may warn you that bootloader installation failed, but the installation will complete.
However, the installed system will fail to boot. If you examine the installer logs you may find the message grub2-setup: warn: your core. The safest workaround for the issue is to resize the first partition on the disk so that there is more empty space in front of it.
A very small change will be sufficient - just having the partition start at 1MiB rather than 32KiB should suffice. Some partition types can be non-destructively resized from the beginning in this way, but in some cases it may be necessary to archive all the data on the partition, delete it, re-create it with a slightly later starting sector, and then restore the data.
If you have to do this, you will likely wish to note the partition's UUID and partition label before destroying the partition, and ensure that they match when re-creating it. There are parameters you can pass to the various mkfs commands to force the UUID of the created partition: for instance, the parameter is -U for the mke2fs command.
An alternative workaround may be to manually install grub-legacy rather than grub2 as the bootloader. However, the use of grub-legacy on Fedora 16 is not officially supported, and grub-legacy may well be removed entirely from future Fedora releases, so this is likely to be feasible only in the short term. You may also compare Arch Linux's note on the same issue. Alternatively, you can install the appropriate grub2 modules manually from anaconda's console before rebooting from the installer, or from rescue mode.
As a result, the old partition s will remain in use. You should reboot now before making further changes. Currently the only known way to workaround the issue is to destroy the existing RAID array in some way, such as by wiping its metadata with mdadm --zero-superblock, prior to installing Fedora Error message is shown when you try to create a new partition layout and don't create BIOS boot partition. It says "you have not created a bootloader stage1 target device".
This obscure message wants to say, that user forget to create a BIOS boot partition. To avoid this, you have to create a new partition. Several Mac owners have reported that their systems are unable to boot Fedora 16 and, in fact, previous Fedora release images via EFI, and display distorted graphics when booted via BIOS emulation.
This affects both live and non-live Fedora images: it is a kernel issue. If you attempt to boot via EFI, the boot process will get some distance but eventually freeze with no further progress after printing some messages about the graphics adapter. If you attempt to boot via BIOS compatibility mode, the boot process will succeed, but the display will be distorted.
Booting via BIOS compatibility mode and using Fedora's 'Basic graphics' mode available from the installer boot menu should work, but will provide only basic, non-native resolution 2D graphics.
Booting via EFI is only possible if you use the text mode installation, and the installed system will also be incapable of any graphical display. Only the text console will work. If you attempt to install Fedora 16 to an iSCSI storage device from any of the live images, the installation will complete successfully, but the installed system will fail to boot.
There is no known workaround for the issue at this point. However, installations from non-live images the DVD or boot. It is highly recommended that you install from a non-live image if you wish to install Fedora 16 to an iSCSI storage device.
If you upgrade from a previous Fedora release, some services that you previously had enabled may be disabled and therefore they will not be started automatically on boot. This happens to services whose initscripts were converted to native systemd units.
This is intentional. The rule for migration to systemd is to "start-over fresh" with default start and stop policy from the new package, and not to migrate what the user had previously configured.
You can instead choose to inspect the services' enablement status manually by using systemctl list-unit-files and systemctl enable foo. This happens because anaconda attempts to set the 'bootable' flag on the partition, but on GPT disks there is no such flag, and the request gets translated into a request to set the partition type to EFI System.
In most cases this will have no practical consequences, but if you have another EFI-booted operating system installed on the same disk, it may be confused by the apparent presence of two EFI system partitions. If you use the text mode of the Fedora installer to perform an upgrade from Fedora 15 to Fedora 16, there is no usable option at the stage where you are asked what to do with the bootloader.
The update option cannot be used due to the switch from grub to grub2, and the skip option will often result in an unbootable system as the kernel s referenced in the bootloader configuration will no longer be installed. The easiest workaround for this issue is to avoid using the installer's text mode, if you can.
If you cannot avoid this, you should select Skip bootloader and then manually update the bootloader configuration from the installer shell available on VT2 or from another OS such as a live boot following the upgrade process.
If you want to install Fedora from network repositories and you have only a wireless network adapter available, you need to provide a password manually in order to connect to a secured wifi network.
After the installer asks you which wireless network to connect to and you confirm your choice, another dialog called Network Connections pops up. The installer offers a possibility to encrypt your disk partitions.
If you chose a non-US keyboard layout earlier in the installation process, there is a possibility that if you encrypt your disk with some language-specific characters you might not be able to decrypt the disk during system boot. This concerns only some languages and only some keyboard layouts, but the full list of affected layouts is unknown.
The recommended approach is to use ASCII-only characters in your disk encryption password, or this is the safest approach select the default US keyboard layout in the installation process, and set your custom keyboard layout only inside the desktop session. What makes Fedora 16 interesting is most likely kernel 3.
But let's not get into numbers. The last time I tested Fedora, it was average, mostly because of its desktop interface, although the underlying system has seen some improvement. Now, it's been half a year since, so perhaps Gnome 3 is finally usable?
Fedora 16 boots into a cartoonish desktop adorned with a wallpaper that depicts something that should be Nautilus diving in the deep seas, as the rather obvious tribute to Verne. Other than that, it still looks as neutered and bland as the previous edition of Gnome 3, with colossally thick window borders and no minimize button, no active icons indicating any sort of useful work you're doing, no shutdown button unless you feel like juggling with the Alt key, fuzzy contrast, bad icons, a depressing gray theme, and a general feel of smartphone retardation.
It's all about application centric versus task centric, the new coin phrase that means everyone does their own stuff their own way. Searching for stuff is incomplete. Like Unity, the search is mostly restricted to top level entries, although you get two neat options of looking up your stuff on Google and Wikipedia, for those who find the linear use of a browser puzzling.
This ought to be a given, but it is not. Samba shares timed out often, even with the firewall turned off. No issues there, the sharing was quick and snappy. Switching Wireless network was also a sad affair. It took no less than 29 seconds to acquire an IP address on either one of my routers when switching between them, something that normally takes seconds with other distros.
I really do not know what the source of the problem is, nor am I inclined to debug, but seems like a Gnome 3 fault. The fonts look rather blurred overall, not helped by the low-contrast theme. Then, you also get icons that are rendered with low quality, making the product feel cheap. Notice that folder icon. That looks bad. Apart from some of these rudimentary check, there was nothing else to do really in the live session at this point. You have no fun stuff. MP3 and Flash are out of the question, the selection of programs is fairly basic, and there's nothing in the desktop that might draw your attention.
You don't feel like exploring or testing stuff, you're just getting slowly, continuously pissed off more and more by the fact you cannot minimize windows, that they overlap and to get to one below the active window you must hit Activities, expand and choose the correct one.
And you have no idea what programs are currently open, you cannot interact with your desktop in any way, and waste your time using your computer like a monkey with the Asperger's syndrome.
The installation process is similar to what you've seen on previous Fedora releases. The installer opens fully maximized, wasting your screen space. It's a statement, I can only single task, it says. The Back and Next buttons are located in the bottom right corner, but there's also some kind of a notification popup panel there, so if you try to hit the Next button, you will most likely activate the notification panel.
Now, I touched the subject of politics in my latest Mandriva review, and here it comes again. When searching for the suitable time zone to represent your locale, Fedora offers cities rather than actual timezone orange-peel strips, like you see in Ubuntu.
The reason for this might be the spread of regional Fedora mirrors and servers for best downloads, but it kind of does not really stand to logic, as time in various cities along the same longitude is pretty much the same. But that's not important, because many distribution use this same method. What is interesting is the choice of some of the cities presented to user.
One such choice is Hebron, in the West Bank. I don't recall seeing this one ever before. I can understand Jerusalem and Gaza, as these two actually represent two different regions, so to speak, but Hebron fits neither here nor there.
If it's meant to be useful to Palestinians, then a more proper place would be Ramallah. I tried to install in TextMode, but when i try change start menu: linuxefi … rd. As I understand you, you are saying that the Live CD boots fine but anaconda itself crashes. This is highly unusual. Did you find anything in the logs linked above?
Unfortunately Fedora removed memory test from live dvd, may be problem with memory of notebook. Here is screen shot for Fedora Because i removed fedora 33 from my flash drive. I found similar error at google from Fedora 26, for example.
Errors are not fixed and the solution is unknown.
