Problems installing F29 on new HP laptop
by Martín Marqués
Hi,
I'm having some problems during the boot process on a new HP laptop Model
15-da0113ns. Boots fine, seems to recognize a bunch of stuff and then in
starts spitting these messages in rdsosreport.txt:
[ 143.674617] localhost dracut-initqueue[940]: Warning: dracut-initqueue
timeout - starting timeout scripts
Until it ends with these messages:
[ 207.080978] localhost dracut-initqueue[940]: Warning: Could not boot.
[ 207.116571] localhost systemd[1]: Starting Setup Virtual Console...
[ 207.121579] localhost systemd[1]: Started Setup Virtual Console.
There there are some systemd output and finally:

Tip: dual boot off of gpt , and legacy and UEFI
by ToddAndMargo
OH HOLY [expletive deleted]!!! I can't believe figured this out!!!!
UEFI.BIOS.Dual.Boot.txt:
References that stink:

https://bl.ocks.org/gdamjan/05b799162e4b3e97a30d37a89fed0fa8
https://forum.level1techs.com/t/configure-grub-to-boot-legacy-and-uefi/12...
Requirements:
Fedora 29
Before installing, gparted:
Wipe the target disk
create a partitin table as GPT
create a first partition as
1 Meg
unformatted
set the partition flag to "bios_grub"
Install Fedora 29 from a UEFI machine:
remove "/home" was removed at installation and moved into "/"
--->>> PRESUMED !!! <<<---
The machine was install and booted from UEFI
The machine is mounted as /dev/sda
Install the legacy BIOS boot loader:
Boot into fedora on UEFI
only installs 3 files
# dnf reinstall grub2-pc
create the BIOS .cfg file
# grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
You made room for this by making the 1 MB partition "bios_grub" so use
"--force"
# grub2-install --force --removable --recheck --target=i386-pc
--boot-directory=/boot /dev/sda

RE: Please Recommend Affordable and Reliable Cloud Storage for 50 TB
of Data
by J.Witvliet@mindef.nl
It depends on several crucial points.
1) For how long do you need 50 TB (months, a year, several years, for-ever)
2) How quickly do you need to retrieve
3) Reliability
4) Sensitivity
4-> Depending on WHAT you are going to store, it might be that you are simply not even allowed to store it in some cloud
2-> Tape might be an option, if you can wait a day or so ☺
1-> This defines your financial break-even-point
If it is for a short while, you might look for external storage,
But when paying hundreds per month, for several years…
When you think of local (self) storage, you should definitely look at CEPH-cluster technology: reliable storage, affordable, and master in scalability
With 5 machines as OSD, each holding four 6TB-drives, and a couple of monitors, you could get away with it

I think DIY is the best route. While some corporations are willing to risk having their data exposed (FB/Cambridge Analytical et al. ) and others can pay the financial price for having their data seen by others, it always boils down to what you want to deal with more (or less)....the amount of times you'll have to explain how some cloud provider screwed up?....or the reliance on your own backups...on your own schedule..and secured through means which fall a little more under your control.
Just sayin'...

flatpak log entries?

Why do I have 47 bazillion lines of this sort of stuff in my logs:

Just checked on HDD..
A Seagate barracuda 8TB (ST8000DM004, SATA600) is doing 214 euro’s;
Three OSD nodes with 4 drives should be enough, giving redundancy and spare capacity.

I never get any reaction or answer . I understood Centos is part of Red

The question is : When I post a problem and/or a question to Centos where

I hope the question is not stupid .

Terminal and NAS -
by Bob Goodwin
I have a router connected NAS, via a USB port. it is a samba server and
works. There is a "send to" function that works for saving files and it
works well enough from various Apple devices but I would prefer to be
able to connect to it from a terminal and do thins like create
directories and add and delete files etc. in a more convenient way.
How can I do that, can it be done? There doesn't appear to be any LAN
address as with a Linux samba server? Just the router itself at the
usual 192.168.1.1. The computer runs Fedora 29 and the router a version
of dd-wrt, nether of which probably matters.

dnf covers fonts?
by home user
Good morning,
In my years of doing weekly patches by doing "dnf upgrade", I've never
seen any fonts added, patched, or replaced. Does "dnf upgrade" check fonts?
thanks,
Bill.
