Anaconda and Fedora

If you are new to Linux never ever try Fedora.

It is a real anaconda.

By the way, anaconda is the nickname we gave to Python.

I did post this before trying Fedora on 120 GB drive.
I erased Ubuntu and installed Fedora on it.
Every bit of it I had to do it manually.

When I booted it it did not recognize my old Navidea graphic card.

It did not give an option to select a suitable driver graphic card.
It took a long time to install.

All other distribution does the installation automatically.

No reporting of errors or problems.

Do not try Fedora on a old graphic card.

Below is what I said about Fedora before installing.
It is a pain.

It will destroy your PC and you may have to buy a new one.
 
I am glad I left Redhat and Fedora many moons ago.

Luckily, I switched on my Radio and listening to old classic songs, in preparation of installing, Fedora JAM edition, and I did not throw a heart attack.

These Linux experts did not talk about PCLinux only Fedora.

I love Plasma Desktop, if you love Plasma experience, please try PCLinux.

I used PCLinux for a long time but gave up since like Endless OS, it does not dual boot with other Linux distributions.

I tried to download PCLinux and with a very few peers, it is stuck at 40% download.

No wonder.

You will begin to hate Fedora, like I hate Windows, even if you have 16 GB RAM.

1. Live sessions takes up (I have 4 GB RAM) all the resources.

2. It took few minutes to open my 1 terabyte external disk.

3. Idea was to install it on the external disk which had 600 GB free space with Ubuntu running and with a few downloaded films.

One can install Debian, Ubuntu and Emmabantus with only 100 GB with 60 GB to spare for Home partition.

Thankfully, I did not start my new book on Linux installation.
An account of Fedora will be there as a side note.

Instead, I would do a book on GRUB and Kernel 5.10.1...

4. idea was to see how it's GRUB works.

5. I tried to run Benji film in the background, it could not mount, it and could not even get the audio file.

6. If you install Fedora to watch films, it is a non starter.

7. Installing with Anaconda was a pain.

8. It has no ....next protocol of the Debian and Ubuntu.

8. There is no welcome screen and it wants you to follow Fedora's business like protocol and say done, to each entry you make.

It is a pain.

9. It probably takes over the full hard disk.

No cohabiting with another Linux distribution, in my case Ubuntu in the external disk.

10. If I give 80% satisfaction with Ubuntu, I give Zero or better Minus points to Fedora.

11. The clutter in the live desktop even a guy like me who is well organized, get disorientated.

This is what happens when something is crowd or community funded.

Ubuntu is an exception.

Everybody wants his or her package included in the distribution.

12. Too many windows and too many redundant utilities.

13. Plasma does not have Gparted and Anaconda is a pain.

Do not ever try this distribution, there are over 300 more distributions in www.distrowatch.com.

14. I think I am going to burn all the books on Redhat and Fedora and keep only the Linux Bible.

15. If you use Fedora or Redhat you are trapped in their corporate plan and you become a slave.

16. Libre or Free software basic Vision is to become FREE.

Not a slave of the Corporate World or Neocons.
