[fedora-arm] Re: Fedora-Minimal-36-1.5 on raspberry pi 2B

Oh thats a easy fix.  Just dnf update a couple of packages at a time, don't try to do it all at once.

i.e. don't do a "dnf update"

Do a "dnf update kernel" for example.

If you can't run dnf for even one package update I would install something else as you are going to run into more problems than just dnf.

Thats just the START of your problems.

Unfortunately this isn't a matter of arm vs x86_64, it's a matter of the dnf with it's repo's have gotten too big to fit in memory.

This is the discussion on the devel list

It's a bit of a long read.
I did see two or three work-arounds.
1 - Add a swap partition and/or swapfile
2 - Use microdnf (but you have to figure out how to install it.  see workaround 1)
3 - Use dnf5 (see workaround 2, and it's still missing some features)

There might be other workarounds that I missed.  As I said, it's a bit of a read.

I do not believe that is supported platform for F37 out of the box.

You may have to build a custom kernel/package set on something that small to run F37.

1Gig is really scraping the bottom of the barrel to run the default image you downloaded.

Plus I would use the raw image, not the armhfp.

But to start  I would strip out all of the desktop components in the image like KDE/GNOME/X and Wayland.

Hello there,

I'm trying to install Fedora-Minimal-36-1.5.armhfp.raw on my raspberry
pi 2B. Installation was a success but the device runs out of memory
when trying to install anything via dnf and I get kicked out of the
shell.

I've followed the installation instructions in
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Raspberry_Pi#Manual,
which specify that this model is supported since Fedora 29; so, is
there anything that I'm missing for Fedora to work?

Thanks,

Irene
