Default How can I install F15 without a desktop environment
I need to install F15 without Gnome, KDE, XFCE, or LXDE. The target has
1 GB of flash for the filesystem. So how can I install F15 with X, but
without a DE?

Thanks,

John

Absolutely! *
You will probably need to get either the installation DVD or the Network install CD, I don't recall seeing package options when installing from live media. *
http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-fedora-all

I would opt for the minimum install and then select "Customize now". *From there you can select X and any other packages you may require.
Note that when you install Fedora with no DE, it defaults to runlevel 3 at bootup. *

Do you need to do anything special with X?

Thanks very much for the reply. I've haven't install from a DVD in a
long time, I've just used the live cds that don't let you choose
packages.* Nothing special require, just a very small install.



Regards,



John

I would suggest 2 things:

1. febootstrap - # yum install febootstrap
2. use kickstart files to install, you can start here:

I always do my installs off the DVD. There's also a "minimal" install
that I use on my servers. It works well.

Then, you'd just "yum install" whatever to get X.

Another question on this. If I default to runlevel 3, will removable media like CDs, DVDs and USB drives still be mounted automatically upon insertion?

AFAIK, by default no, they won't. This is typically done by the graphical DE.
Namely, if there is no user currently logged in the desktop GUI, it is not
obvious which user should be set as owner of the files in the mount point.

However, I think this can be configured so that things get automounted with a
pre-specified owner etc. Google is your friend. ;-)

HTH, :-)

As Marko already remarked - google is your friend. I would search for

Hi,

I confirm that some time ago kernel 2.6.32-5-amd64 began to panic too.
