Fedora 25 ppc64

[xeno74]

Hi All,

Alex figured out that the libmozjs-17.0.so is responsible for the polkitd issue. He patched the libmozjs-17.0.so. Fedora 25 works really better with Alex's patched libmozjs-17.0.so.



Cheers,

Christian

Are you interested in Fedora 25 Server ppc64? Shall I upload an image?

I am creating an Fedora 25 image for the upload.

Code: Select all

dd if=/dev/zero of=fedora25.img bs=1024k count=6000

Code: Select all

mkfs ext4 -F fedora25.img

Code: Select all

mount  -o loop -t ext4 fedora25.img /mnt

Code: Select all

cd /media/christian/c87fa493-6827-4072-af93-7175972daf64

Here is the image.

Download: fedora25.img.gz

I suggest to download Fedora 25 with a right click on the link and then with the menu point "Save target as" or something like this.

Extract the image with:

Code: Select all

gunzip fedora25.img.gz

Please mount the image with the following command as root:

Code: Select all

mount  -o loop -t ext4 fedora25.img /mnt

Code: Select all

cd /mnt

With the following command you can copy the whole img to an empty partition as root:

Code: Select all

rsync --stats --progress --numeric-ids -axAhHSP <in the mounted img> <new empty partition>

For example:

Code: Select all

rsync --stats --progress --numeric-ids -axAhHSP . /media/christian/c87fa493-6827-4072-af93-7175972daf64

After that, it's important to edit /etc/fstab in Fedora's new partition with the correct root partition id.

Users:

amigaone with password amigaone
root with password amigaone

If you want to use X11 then type startx.

The standard desktop for root is MATE and the standard desktop for the user amigaone is LXDE. If you login as root then you can also type lightdm for using a display manager. With lightdm you have the possibility to login as root or amigaone to the MATE, LXDE and Xfce desktop. If X11 doesn't work then you can edit the xorg.conf in the directory /etc/X11 with the correct values.

I installed the game Neverball on Fedora 25. Unfortunately I had no sound and hardware 3D acceleration. I had to install Alsa with the following command:

Code: Select all

dnf install alsa*

After that I added the user amigaone to the group audio with the following command:

Code: Select all

usermod -aG audio amigaone

Additionally I had to add the user amigaone to the group video because of the right to use hardware 3D acceleration.

Code: Select all

usermod -aG video amigaone

Afterwards, Neverball works with sound and hardware 3D acceleration.

Thanks.

I put Fedora25 on my USB3-Stick with Kernel4.8rc6

It runs acceptable because its Alpha.

Thank you for testing Fedora 25.

Just for info:

I installed Fedora 25 with a virtual POWER7 pSeries machine (QEMU) on a QEMU image because it isn't installable on the AmigaONE X1000 itself. There aren't any problems with the default libmozjs-17.0.so on POWER7.
