I got the installation booting on my RPi3 again. I couldn't update it with dnf update because the update was simply too large to run. I might try again in the near future.
Here are some things that I learned in this effort. 1) RPi3 boots with extlinux, not grub or grub2. 2) To change the kernel boot parameters, edit /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf 3) You can set the run level via the kernel parameters. - add "systemd.unit=runlevel1.target" to the append line in the kernel parameters, for example https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/19/html/Installation_Guide/s1-grub-targets.html https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SysVinit_to_Systemd_Cheatsheet 4) To disable various services, remove service.service from the target.wants folder for the target you are using. Each target has its own wants folder ! If you change run levels, you'll have to re enable various services. For example, in the /usr/lib/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants [me@localhost multi-user.target.wants]$ ls -al total 28 drwxr-xr-x. 3 root root 4096 Mar 6 15:31 . drwxr-xr-x. 29 root root 20480 Jan 31 11:59 .. lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 15 Nov 29 07:24 dbus.service -> ../dbus.service lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 15 Jan 16 06:00 getty.target -> ../getty.target drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Mar 6 15:31 hidden lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 24 Jun 20 2016 plymouth-quit.service -> ../plymouth-quit.service lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 29 Jun 20 2016 plymouth-quit-wait.service -> ../plymouth-quit-wait.service lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 33 Jan 16 06:00 systemd-ask-password-wall.path -> ../systemd-ask-password-wall.path lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 39 Jan 16 06:00 systemd-update-utmp-runlevel.service -> ../systemd-update-utmp-runlevel.service lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 32 Jan 16 06:00 systemd-user-sessions.service -> ../systemd-user-sessions.service Hint: to disable a service, make a folder called hidden and move the service to that folder. 5) To start raw networking manually, do the following: With a dynamic IP $ ifconfig eth0 up $ sudo dhclient eth0 With a static IP To set IP address you want (for example 192.168.0.1) type: $ ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up $ route add default gw GATEWAY-IP eth0 If you want to use Network Manager: systemctl stop NetworkManager.service systemctl disable NetworkManager.service Then you enable the network service in a similar fashion. systemctl enable network.service systemctl start network.service Network Manager Command Line Interface documentation https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Networking/CLI http://serverfault.com/questions/21475/starting-network-connection-from-ubuntu-recovery If you get a message about resolv.conf not being found, it is supposed to get set to something at boot time. Create a fake one or run NetworkManager to get it to create one. /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf is a symbolic link that should point to a real file https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2068299 Hope this helps someone.
