dual boot Windows10 fedora28
Hi, I purchased an Asus laptop with 2 hard drives (SSD 256 GB and HDD 1 TB). Windows10 was preinstalled on the SSD and the HDD drive is used for data. I wanted to install fedora alongside Windows. So I shrinked the partition on the SSD drive (sdb) and also the partition on the HDD drive (sda). I installed fedora on the new partition of the SDD drive. So far so good. I can boot into Windows as well as Fedora. Now I want to have /home, /usr/ and/ /tmp on the HDD drive, which I intend to use as data-drive. I created a mountpoint for the new partition of the HDD drive (sudo mkdir /mnt/sda2 and sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/sda2). Now I am stuck. This is beyond my (limited) skills. How do I realize that /home, /usr and and /tmp wil be stored on the HDD? I need a step-by-step tutorial to proceed. Thanks in advance.

Re: dual boot Windows10 fedora28
I assume you've verified that the SSD has a GPT partition table.
Yes, I did.
Honestly, the easiest way to find out is start over, go to custom
partitioning, clock on the blue link to create partitions automatically,
and see what it chooses for /boot/efi.
I did this. I chose the SSD-disk, which contains also the Windows boot
partition, to install Fedora 28. This is what happened. The installer (custom
mode) creates LVM and a /boot partition. Not a /boot/efi partition. Did I boot
into UEFI? I think so.
$ ls /sys/firmware/efi
config_table esrt fw_vendor runtime-map
efivars fw_platform_size runtimesystab
$ sudo efibootmgr -v

I found it and verified that it works. On the hard drive selection
screen, in the bottom left corner, there's a boot selection link. Click
that and you will get a dialog box that will let you select the other
hard drive as the boot drive. Then it won't complain about the EFI
partition.
So If I reinstall the way you suggest, and choose the HDD-disk as the boot
drive, can I still go on with " custom" installation an put / on the SSD?
And shall I still have the advantage of a fast boot?

soft lockup after hibernation
Hi, Recently I installed Fedora 28 alongside Windows. There is something wrong with powering off after hibernation. When I have closed the lid of the laptop, and, some time later , wake up the system, it won't poweroff. Powering off hangs with the message "watchdog bug soft lockup - cpu#2 stuck for 22s, ..." When I poweroff the system without closing the lid some time (hibernation) the system is going down as it should. When I boot into an older kernel the same happens, so it is not a kernel issue. During starting up the system a short notice is displayed about "nouvau" and "fault". I cannot read the message properly because it is only visible for 1 second. I don't know if this has something to do with the problem. I would like to know if I can solve this problem. ___ 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/message/IJA5GVS2P3VFT63YLDBPGCUQBEJ43NMA/
Thunderbird locks up
Hi, I am aware that this might not be an appropriate topic for this list, but you never know. I am running TB on Fedora 23. Have been using TB for years without problems. Suddenly when I launched TB the little wheel kept spinning and still does. I can't send or receive email. Nothing has changed in my account settings nor was there an update of TB. Ik can still handle email via webmail on this account. This is a message in the error-console: Timestamp: 05/31/2016 02:57:52 PM Warning: Unknown property 'grid-auto-columns'. Declaration dropped. Source File: resource://gre-resources/ua.css Line: 175, Column: 19 Source Code: grid-auto-columns: inherit; I don't know if this explains the locking up. I tried to remove and reinstall TB, but the problem remains. I asked this question at the Mozilla support forum, but this does not seem to be a useful forum. I don't know how to solve this problem. Does anyone have a clue?

grub recovery
Hi, After a Windows update my (dual boot) system won't boot into fedora anymore. Somehow the grub bootloader doesn' t start. After booting this is what I see: Minimal Bash-like line editing is supported. For the first word TAB lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists possible device or file completions. grub>_ When I issue the command "exit" the Windows bootloader pops up. I googled on this subject, but found many completely different answers. I would appreciate any suggestion. How can I recover my system? ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
Zygrib not available for Fedora 21?
Hi, After upgrading to Fedora 21 I lost Zygrib. Can't find a rpm in the repo's. Of course I could compile from source, but I'd rather wait for a rpm-package. Does anyone know if it there will be there soon? Should I try to install the fedora 20 rpm?
