Being in Texas, you probably don't ski.  But if you did, it seems you
would be of the 'point the skis down the hill and go for it' learning
persuasion.  Great way to learn, but lots of knocks along the way.  Lots
of excitement too.

David,

If you want a simple way to see exactly what kernel you're running,
type:

uname -a

If you want to know the familiar name of the OS you are running, type:

cat /etc/fedora-release

If you REALLY want to get fancy, edit your /etc/bashrc file using vim
or equivalent editor. Look for the following three lines about 52 lines
into the file:

# Turn on checkwinsizeshopt -s checkwinsize[ "$PS1" = "\\s-
\\v\\\$ " ] && PS1="[\u@\h \W]\\$ "

Replace the third line with this:

[ "$PS1" = "\\s-\\v\\\$ " ] && PS1="\n\\033[1;31m`cat /etc/redhat-
release`\n\\033[1;34m`date +%A` - `date +%B` `date +%d`, `date
+%Y`  \\033[0;32m\t `date +%Z`\n\033[0;36m[\u@\h:\l]
\\033[1;33m\w\\033[0;37m\n\\$ "

(Make sure you use back ticks rather than single quotes.) This will
give you a complex colorful multi-line xterm prompt that will dress up
your terminal sessions.

If you like running Rawhide simply because it has a cool name, you
should probably have heeded your mother's warning not to run with
scissors. I've been using Fedora since its initial release, and Red Hat
Linux before that. I remember the wreckage in the early days when I
(ignorantly) tried installing every (!) package in what was then
Rawhide. Talk about your major train wreck. I eventually learned to
install development versions of Fedora (starting with the Beta release)
only in a VM so any serious oops wouldn't destroy my day-to-day working
files in /home.

It's up to you, of course. Just a bit of no-cost advise from a long-
time user to a new guy.

Super Exciting News

[David]

I am in Fedora 33 on hardware as my only operating system !!

It is butter-smooth and fast and everything works.

This is so thrilling.

Re: Exciting news

[David]

I have not rebooted yet, but if I type "inxi -F" it displays I am in Fedora
33.

I lost third-party repository along the way.

Rebooting now.

Exciting news

[David]

I am not the sharpest tool in the shed, but I resolved my Rawhide update
problem
all on my own.

The trick was to first run "dnf install redhat-rpm-config"

I think that is all there was too it.

I installed a lot of packages manually, but I do not think that was
necessary.

My Rawhide install now has about seventy fc33 packages.   And lots of
the
anaconda packages seemed to clear out.

Everything installed !!

I am too scared to reboot.But probably will anyways.

I am curious now whether my system will say I am on Fedora 33, if
it reboots successfully ??
