That's just a normal NFS filesystem. Using the word "automount" will confuse people about what you're trying to do. You misunderstood me. With the latest updatest to F28/29 it is automount which is "breaking" my system of plain old NFS setup that I had. To reiterate: Currently a user can not log on to a laptop which has the fstab-line described above when the laptop is not connected to the local network. In the logs I can see that this is because during the login process automount now tries to mount the NFS share and fails. This happens despite the fact that there is a valid /home/ directory (a local copy). Replace the word "defaults" with the word "nofail" and the system should behave like it used to. Thanks, will try this.

Fedora 29 Live CD/USB Cannot Install on Raid nor Boot in UEFI.
Hi, I have burnt a Fedora 29 workstation live install to DVD and tried to boot it with the bios set to UEFI mode, but it halted with a boot error. Thinking there might be an error with the DVD I downloaded a tool for windows that allowed me to download and burn the F29 installer to usb, but this failed to boot with the same issue as the DVD. If I switched the bios into legacy mode both the DVD and USB successfully booted to the Fedora desktop. From what I have read on the net the live installer is dual setup, in terms of the documentation said that if the installer was booted in UEFI mode it would perform a UEFI install and if it was booted in legacy mode it would do a bios install, so given this have I done something incorrectly to cause the installer to not boot in UEFI mode? Having set my hard disks up in Raid 10 mode I booted the F29 installer in bios mode which successfully booted to the desktop, where I selected the install to hard disk option which worked fine up to the point of setting up the disks, where the disk setup could not see any disks at all to configure for installation. From what I've read on the internet the workstation installers for F22 through F24 did not support raid but the equivalent server installers did. Has this still not been rectified up to the F29 workstation installer? regards, Steve ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
New Install of F29 in a VM Doesn't Display the Grub Menu
Hi, I have installed Windows 10 on my raid system as that was the only OS the new motherboard provided raid drivers for at install time. The install of Windows 10 was done in UEFI mode (albeit there doesn't appear to be a UEFI partition on the ssd windows is installed to, there is only the drive C partition, a system partition and a recovery partition) and the bios is currently set to UEFI mode. Under windows I have installed vmware and used the USB live install of F29 that I have (which would not boot natively in UEFI mode) which successfully installed F29. Having done the install every time I boot it does not display a grub menu even though there are multiple kernels installed. In F28 there was a grub default file with supplied initial "default" grub configurations which other files in /etc/grub.d supplemented to build (in a bios installation) /boot/grub2/grub.cfg, but this default file doesn't appear to be present in F29. Looking in /etc there is a link named grub2-efi.cfg as well as grub2.cfg, the former of which is a link to /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg, but this .cfg file does not exist. Assuming there is a menu with a timeout of 0 so that it doesn't display, where do I find the grub files that will allow me to change that timeout and configure how the grub menus will display? regards, Steve ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
Terminal and NAS -
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.

I have booted the F29 live using USB in UEFI mode. What is the error you are getting? If you're creating it from Windows, you should be using the Fedora live media writer. Having set my hard disks up in Raid 10 mode I booted the F29 installer in bios mode which successfully booted to the desktop, where I selected the install to hard disk option which worked fine up to the point of setting up the disks, where the disk setup could not see any disks at all to configure for installation. From what I've read on the internet the workstation installers for F22 through F24 did not support raid but the equivalent server installers did. Has this still not been rectified up to the F29 workstation installer? How are you creating the RAID? Is this hardware RAID or software RAID? If hardware, then what is the RAID model? Also, it's easier to use Linux software RAID which you can setup in the installer. And personally, I think it's safer and probably faster. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org

The Fedora install under vmware would be in BIOS mode unless vmware supports UEFI now like qemu does. This means that /boot/grub2/grub.cfg is the active config file. On a new F29 install, the grub menu is hidden by default unless there is more than one OS available. I'm not sure which default grub configuration you're referring to.
