=== General changes
|
| |
|
| |
+ * On Fedora Workstation, the default partitioning scheme has been changed to Btrfs.
|
| |
+ //Link to https://pagure.io/fedora-docs/release-notes/issue/530
|
| |
+ * The installer now runs `zram-generator` instead of its own implementation of the ZRAM service. The `inst.zram` boot option is now deprecated.
|
| |
+ //Link to https://pagure.io/fedora-docs/release-notes/issue/515
|
| |
+ * The graphical installer will now show a warning message if you input an invalid partition/volume/subvolume size in custom partitioning.
|
| |
+ * `/boot` can now be on a Btrfs volume.
|
| |
+ * The installer now checks whether existing partitions are mounted. Previously, only newly created partitions were checked.
|
| |
+ * In the Software Selection screen, lines in labels are now automatically broken in order to prevent the screen becoming wider than the display.
|
| |
+ * You can now drag and resize the custom storage summary dialog in the GUI.
|
| |
+ * The installer now uses the keyfile format instead of `ifcfg` to store network configuration passed through the UI or boot options. Kickstart-specified network options are still currently saved in `ifcfg`.
|
| |
+ //Link to https://pagure.io/fedora-docs/release-notes/issue/558
|
| |
+ * You can now select the LUKS version of an encrypted container in the Manual Partitioning screen.
|
| |
+ * Georgian translations now work correctly on the Welcome screen.
|
| |
+ * The Welcome screen now displays the title of a detected existing Linux installation correctly when you change the language.
|
| |
+ * The installer now displays the correct error message when no Linux partitions are detected in rescue mode.
|
| |
+ * The `default_partitioning` configuration option in the `Storage` section now accepts a list of mount points and their attributes. See the link:https://anaconda-installer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/configuration-files.html[upstream documentation] for details.
|
| |
+ * Anaconda now displays a warning if you use an Anaconda-specific boot option without the `inst.` prefix. In the next release (Fedora 34), support for using these options without a prefix will be removed completely.
|
| |
+ * The `inst.ks=bd:...` boot option has been removed. This option was implemented as a placeholder for future implementation which was never finished.
|
| |
+ * When Anaconda attempts to load a kernel module which is missing but not required for the installation, it now prints `anaconda-modprobe: Module <name> not found` instead of the old error message of `modprobe: FATAL: Module floppy not found in directory /lib/modules/...` in order to prevent confusion.
|
| |
+ * The installer's crash reporting mechanism now produces correct bug identification hashes, which prevents Anaconda bugs from being filed as duplicates.
|
| |

[[sect-installation-kickstart]]
|
| |
=== Kickstart changes
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ * New Kickstart command `timesource` has been added. See the link:https://pykickstart.readthedocs.io/en/latest/kickstart-docs.html#timesource[upstream documentation] for details. The `--ntpservers` and `--nontp` options of the `timezone` command will be deprecated in future releases as the new command replaces their functionality.
|
| |
+ * The `%pre` section now supports configuring VLAN over bond devices.
|
| |
+ * The `%pre` section now supports bridged bond.
|
| |
+ * The `network --nodefroute` option now also works when defined in the `%pre` section.
|
| |
+ * Sending of custom vendor-class-identifier to a dhcp server has been fixed both for Kickstart `network
|
| |
+ --dhcpclass` command and the `inst.dhcpclass` boot option.
|
| |
+ * The `--biospart` option of the `harddrive` command has been removed. This option was implemented as a placeholder for future implementation which was never finished.
|
| |
+ * The installer now runs the `%onerror` and `%traceback` scripts for all types of exceptions now. Previously, these scripts were not run for example on `NonInteractiveError` exceptions in command line mode, which prevented them from handling failures during automated installs that could not proceed with the given configuration.
|
| |
+ * The Kickstart file that is automatically generated after the installation at `/root/anaconda-ks.cfg` now contains information about the current Anaconda version, which helps with identification and debugging, and allows for better reproducible builds.
