Installazione
Anaconda changes
This section covers changes in the Anaconda installer, including changes in the graphical and text mode interactive installers, Kickstart, and installer boot options.
General changes
-
In the Installer screen for setting up user, the "Make this user administrator" checkbox is now checked by default. This improves installation experience for users who do not know and need to rely on the default values to guide them.
-
Keyboard configuration is now disabled on live media with Wayland, due to ongoing issues with switching keyboard layouts in Wayland. Make sure to note what layout you are using during the installation if using live media, as any passwords will be set using that layout.
-
Support for built-in help has been revamped and now uses mapping files with a unified format. These mappings are located in the root of the
help/
directory, typically in/usr/share/anaconda/help
. These files contain data about available help content. See the pull request for details.
Kickstart changes
-
The previously deprecated
%anaconda
section has been removed. Use Anaconda configuration files to change the behavior of the installer instead. -
Support for the
ANA_INSTALL_PATH
environment variable is now deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Use the/mnt/sysroot
path instead. See the upstream documentation for details.
Other changes related to installation
Fedora Silverblue and Kinoite now create separate subvolumes for /var
When performing a fresh installation of Fedora Silverblue or Kinoite, the guided installation will automatically create a separate var
Btrfs subvolume to be mounted at /var
. This will allow it to be snapshot and rolled back independently from the root
subvolume, which allows for an efficient way of backing variable system data.
Upgrading an existing system will not create the new subvolume, only new installations will.
