Enabling an SSHD server Systemctl stop firewalld systemctl disable firewalld ![]() Using dnf to install nano, rsync, and net-toolsĪ lot of things that you take for granted, like nano, rsync, and ifconfig (part of net-tools), do not exist until you add them with dnf. Doing standard housekeeping and a standard buildįrom this point on in the build, the machine feels like a “normal” Linux box. You will boot into a standard Linux login screen. Follow the wizard – make sure you create a root password, The system will boot. On first boot, at the bottom of the screen, you will see a set of questions regarding initial system username, password, and other settings. Gparted /dev/XXX Following the text setup wizard (Decompression and image write to media part of the same operation above under “Decompressing the Fedora image file”) Using a partition tool to expand the / partition on the micro-SD card Xzcat | sudo dd status=progress bs=4M of=/dev/XXX # Location of your media (will be sdX or mmcblkX depending on hardware) Formatting the micro-SD card with the image In Windows, use WinRAR to decompress the image file. Decompressing the file containing the Fedora 29 image file The Fedora 29 image contains a FAT32 partition with an implementation of UEFI, and several ext4 partitions. In the Pi world, everything boots from a FAT32 UEFI partition on a micro-SD card. The Raspberry Pi Fedora installer consists of an ISO image you will image to a micro-SD card. How this is different from a Wintel installĪ Wintel build consists of boot media, either a usb drive or a dvd drive, which contains a bootable image that includes an installer used to format another device, typically a hard drive, with boot and other partitions. After the practical information, there is a “Rant section.” Choosing the version you will installįor now, I suggest you avoid the GUI desktop altogether and stick with a text-only web, file, and vpn server based on Fedora 29 Minimal. This section contains actual procedural information. This makes Fedora on Pi perfect for serving video files at home, or as a vpn server for a small home office or satellite office. Although too slow to operate as a useful Graphical User Interface (“GUI”) desktop, the Pi does a good job running a text-only web, file, and vpn server. The recent release of Fedora 29 for the Raspberry Pi means that the hobbyist hardware platform can finally be considered as a viable alternative to Windows-on-Intel (“Wintel”) hardware to host Linux server applications. ![]()
