General History Terminal Installation Getting started Fedora-14-i386 ROSA.FRESH.LXQT
Fishing, publicdomainvectors.org 		Updated 2024-10-20
Installing ROSA.FRESH.LXQT.12.2.i686
The installation is relatively similar to that of Fedora 34.

Partition /dev/sda3 created with fdisk, from the previous distribution, also required a filesystem built with mkfs, so I stopped the installation, built the necessary filesystem and started the installation again.

/sbin/mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda3

installation installation

Now it worked.

After installation, adding partitions /dev/sda4, /dev/sda2 (swap) and /dev/sda1 to /etc/fstab:

x@rosa2021 ~ $ su -c '/sbin/blkid'
Password:

/dev/sda2: UUID="a40d4259-577b-41be-9644-03f53c7a8926" TYPE="swap" PARTUUID="92121ea4-02"

cd /media/
su -c 'mkdir sda4;mkdir sda1'

cd /etc/
su -c 'vi fstab'

:q
Then disabled some services:

su

systemctl disable cpupower.service
systemctl disable crond.service
systemctl disable cups.service
systemctl disable atd.service
systemctl disable dmraid-activation.service
systemctl disable irqbalance.service
systemctl disable mdmonitor.service
systemctl disable rpcbind.service
systemctl disable smb.service
systemctl disable nmb.service
systemctl disable sshd.service
systemctl disable avahi-daemon.service
systemctl disable avahi-dnsconfd.service
systemctl disable avahi-daemon.socket
systemctl disable canberra-system-bootup.service
systemctl disable getty@.service
systemctl disable rtkit-daemon.service
systemctl disable systemd-pstore.service
systemctl disable wsdd.service
systemctl disable dm-event.socket
systemctl disable pcscd.socket
systemctl disable rpcbind.socket
systemctl disable machines.target
systemctl disable reboot.target
systemctl disable cryptsetup.target
systemctl disable remote-fs.target
systemctl disable remote-cryptsetup.target
systemctl disable dnf-makecache.timer
systemctl disable fstrim.timer
systemctl disable logrotate.timer
systemctl disable man-db.timer

exit

In general:

systemctl list-unit-files

q

sistemctl disable *.service

If you're not sure about whether or not to disable a certain service, you can try this:

systemctl stop *.service

If nothing bad happens, you can safely disable the service. If something bad does happen, you can restart the computer and everything will be fine.

Now about the boot file, /etc/default/grub:

cd /etc/default/

su -c 'vi grub'

GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep
GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY=true
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="ROSA"
GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768,1024x600,800x600,640x480
GRUB_DEFAULT=saved
GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT=true
GRUB_TIMEOUT="10"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT='splash=silent logo.nologo quiet'
GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false
GRUB_THEME="/boot/grub2/themes/rosa/theme.txt"
GRUB_BACKGROUND="/boot/grub2/themes/rosa/terminal_background.png"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="resume=UUID=a40d4259-577b-41be-9644-03f53c7a8926 rhgb quiet"
GRUB_ENABLE_BLSCFG=true
GRUB_PASSWORD_PROTECT_ONLY_EDITING=true

Deleted lines 1,4,8, 10 and 11 and added "selinux=0" at line 12 (which is now line 7):

GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY=true
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="ROSA"
GRUB_DEFAULT=saved
GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT=true
GRUB_TIMEOUT="5"
GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="resume=UUID=a40d4259-577b-41be-9644-03f53c7a8926 quiet selinux=0"
GRUB_ENABLE_BLSCFG=true
GRUB_PASSWORD_PROTECT_ONLY_EDITING=true

Then:

su -c '/usr/sbin/grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg'

reboot

Then removing some applications (ffmpeg and mplayer will be installed properly, ulimit -n 4096 was necessary for mplayer):

su

rpm -e dnfdragora-qt-2.1.2-6.noarch dnfdragora-2.1.2-6.noarch dnfdragora-common-2.1.2-6.noarch
dnf remove trojita
dnf remove audacious
dnf remove telegram
rpm -e qps-2.4.0-3.i686 task-lxqt-1.0.0-2.noarch
rpm -e ffmpeg-4.4.1-1.i686 rosa-media-player-1.6.11-15.i686
rpm -e mplayer-1.4-3.i686 mencoder-1.4-3.i686
rm /etc/profile.d/termhelper.sh
dnf remove xscreensaver

exit

And then dnf can be used to install some applications that are missing from the installation image, like:

dnf install gimp
