Just throwing it out there I use Fedora mainly and have a dual boot windows set up. If you run windows on its own separate drive to the linux one it seems to work just fine (as fine as windows can anyways, lol)
Thank you! Had a problem when I was supposed to reboot and take out the thumb drive, it was loading forever. I turned my PC off and on again and that fixed it.
Hi, so I'm considering switching from Windows 10 to Linux Fedora 40, but I would like to test it on my laptop first via live usb test, just to see how the OS runs directly on my hardware without changing anything on my system. When I get to the Grub menu at 7:51, do I select the second option that says "Test this media" rather than the first one for what I'm doing? This is my first time doing this as well.
@Digital Scriptorium : Your tutorial is excellent. But how did you capture this whole thing so beautifully as it is done on VM and has been screen recorded. Can you please share the secret, please?
I am having a lot of porblem with wifi adapter. Shows wifi networks available near me but cant connect. I am using Cudy WU1400 adapter ( RLT8812BU). Any help?😢
I used my SanDisk thumb drive for the installation, when it was done I used the media writer to restore it, but now it won't get detected by any device, not even a windows, whenever I try to format it says [Error unmounting /dev/sda1: target is busy (udisks-error-quark, 14)], any fixes for this?
after i installed fedora and and rebooted it the laptop is asking for boot device then i reconnected my usb .now it is fresh installing the fedora again what is the issue here?
Thank you for this, btw can you give commands for the proper way to install the best multimedia stuff? Is it gstreamer? Been 1+ years since I used fedora and I have forgotten and I remember last time it was hassle. I want to run all avc, hevc, av1, all anime, CGI, 1080p 4K videos without any lag, stuttering and screen tear. I will install mpv for that but the multimedia commands are very difficult for me to manage.

I don't blame you! Sometimes it's best to go all in for this but obviously you'll want to back up your data. Worst case you go back to a fresh install of Windows.
Does it take a long time to show the tour window after i click "start using fedora linux" ? Its been a while and nothing happened. *Fedora 40 installation*
If you're making the bootable drive on windows you can try this utility to make sure the thumb drive doesn't have hidden partitions taking up space. hddguru.com/software/HDD-LLF-Low-Level-Format-Tool/
@Digital-Scriptorium yes I have both I want to install fedora but I don't know what to expect with drivers for intel and nvidia, can I install hybrid mode like in popos?
Thanks, that was helpful! Nothing that I wouldn't be able to do by myself, but with your detailed explanations the process went smoothly and calmer)
No problem and enjoy! :)
If for some reason you can't see your SSD pop up when choosing where to install the OS, go to the bios and change SATA to AHCI instead of RAID
This will delete everything on said drive tho
Thank you for the info.

I use Fedora mainly and have a dual boot windows set up. If you run windows on its own separate drive to the linux one it seems to work just fine (as fine as windows can anyways, lol)
Haha yep. That seems to be the way to go. I just personally do the one OS route.

Thank you bro for you kind video

Test the media basically checks the files and thumb drive are ok. Using the top option is fine to use as the live OS test.
@@Digital-Scriptorium Thank you, sounds good. Is it also necessary to format your USB drive to fat32 beforehand as well, or is that not needed?
@@kene9073 that's not needed. If you're using Rufus it will auto detect what's needed for the format. So just let it work it's magic.
4:40 we have the same wallpaper,,, both downloading fedora LMFAO
Haha classic!
9:47 when I do this step, it doesn’t say I have one. I opened my laptop and took my hard drive out and in again still not showing up with this
Anyway u can fix this
It could be a BIOS setting you need to alter. I believe the distros forums has a guide on what the specifics are.
@@Digital-Scriptorium yeah I tried downloading fedora and it ask me what disk but I had none
@@Digital-Scriptorium well my ssd card went whomp whomp
@@ZZY12365 interesting! But these things do happen.
Thank you ❤️
No problem! Enjoy! :)
Thanks mate.

@Digital Scriptorium : Your tutorial is excellent. But how did you capture this whole thing so beautifully as it is done on VM and has been screen recorded. Can you please share the secret, please?
I'm using a Lenovo m720q desktop as the computer that I load the OS on. I'm controlling it and capturing the video using a pi-kvm v3.
I am having a lot of porblem with wifi adapter. Shows wifi networks available near me but cant connect. I am using Cudy WU1400 adapter ( RLT8812BU). Any help?😢
Hmmm, RTL so I'm guessing it's a Realtek chipset which should be ok. Do you have the 3rd party drivers enabled?
I used my SanDisk thumb drive for the installation, when it was done I used the media writer to restore it, but now it won't get detected by any device, not even a windows, whenever I try to format it says [Error unmounting /dev/sda1: target is busy (udisks-error-quark, 14)], any fixes for this?
I wonder if a low level format tool would help kick it.
can you link your wallpaper? It's cool
Are you looking for the Windows XP 4k Bliss background or the Fedora one?
after i installed fedora and and rebooted it the laptop is asking for boot device then i reconnected my usb .now it is fresh installing the fedora again what is the issue here?
It could be your boot order in your bios or the boot loader didn't install for some reason.
Thank you for this, btw can you give commands for the proper way to install the best multimedia stuff? Is it gstreamer? Been 1+ years since I used fedora and I have forgotten and I remember last time it was hassle.

Sorry for the delayed response. Give this a shot which I admit I clipped out of ChatGPT :)

how to fix when Fedora 40 workstation installer won't start. I can boot from USB drive but install to hard drive don't want to start at all.
Is it just not reacting or hanging?
@@Digital-Scriptorium It's not reacting, not even install to hard drive prompt. Only spinning wheel.
I'm curious if you leave it be for 30 minutes and see if it eventually makes it through.
@@luqmanhamdan9285 try to make USB Bootable with Rufus or Balena Etcher
The step at 11:42 is taking an eternity to boot up, I'm not to sure what i did wrong here...
😅
Sometimes certain steps can take a long time. I just give them time.
i am facing the same problem
do i have to change the order of boot setting in my BIOS?
@@Digital-Scriptorium help
@@amitnishad0777 yes, try and see if that will help by adjusting it in your BIOS.
@@amitnishad0777 I just turned the computer on and off again, holding the power button down for 10 seconds did the trick, then it turned on just fine, if that doesn't work then im not to sure, also there are plenty of linux discord servers out there that can assist you ^
I installed thank you. But my brightness is full even though i adjust the slider. Help me
Hmm, it might be worth checking the Fedora forums on that one.
10:15 this is the scary part for me.
I last time i tried to install Ubuntu i ended up wiping all my hard drive .
I have one hard drive. I have 3 partion ,C: for window/ OS and D and E for data like games etc etc. 😢
I am tried of windows. Its so dang slow. I heard Linux is faster.
I don't blame you! Sometimes it's best to go all in for this but obviously you'll want to back up your data. Worst case you go back to a fresh install of Windows.

For nvidia and intel which one to download?
Are you saying if you have a hybrid device that has both? I believe (I haven't tested it) that you can select both to pull the drivers.
@Digital-Scriptorium yes I have both I want to install fedora but I don't know what to expect with drivers for intel and nvidia, can I install hybrid mode like in popos?
@@chr433 I think you should be fine to install both.
@Digital-Scriptorium I will try
@Digital-Scriptorium Thanks for the help!
