CentOS

I switched to Centos 7/18.10 after many years of using Fedora. My last Fedora version was 29. I switched because the Gnome interface with Fedora 28 and later Fedora releases did not offer any migration path for gnome extensions.

I believe that Fedora and RedHat follow the same route

cd /run/media/yourlogon/

I took a 300gig partition and formatted it ext4. I looked at the amount of meta data (control information) and took note of the amount. I reformatted that 300gig partition for xfs.

I did the following. a) I did run memtest for an hour without a problem (a few cycles with all the bit patterns). b)I reviewed the bios settings for dims and added one extra clock to some ram mana...

I have ext4 file systems on a x64 computer with 8 gigs ram, and with Fedora 23 and SUSE. installed. I used wget onc...
