Time to test Fedora Media Writer

By -
The new Fedora Live USB Creator that is being finished has an overhauled, more user friendly interface. Because USB sticks are the most common way to install Fedora, it should be the primary download option. It cover the whole installation media creation, it lets the user pick the right flavor of Fedora, downloads its image, and copies it to a USB drive. It will provide an easy-to-use tool for all major platforms (Linux, Windows, Mac OS X) which will be offered to users as the primary download option. That should generally lower the barrier for potential users to try and install Fedora.
To make the above endeavor successful ,  Fedora QA team is organizing an Fedora Media Writer Test Day.


What will we be testing ?

1.Installing Fedora Media Writer
2.Writing Fedora images to the USB flash drive
3.Booting up and verifying the USB


How to participate?
This is an open to all event, everyone can participate by going to the test page. Feel free to ask a  specific query either on #fedora-test-day.

Rocket on Fedora

This post is a very small example of how you can start creating small web apps with Rocket which extensively uses Rust under the hood. This post will just give an idea about how to get started if you are totally new to rust. Rocket is a web framework for Rust that makes it simple to write fast web applications without sacrificing flexibility or type safety . All with minimal code. - rocket.rs Getting started: Start by installing rust nightly on your system or virtual box: $ curl -sSf https://static.rust-lang.org/rustup.sh | sh -s -- --channel=nightly                  Setting up Project and Dependencies: Setting up the project is easy cas you can go ahead and execute cargo new hello-rocket --bin Once the execution is completes , you will have a binary application created with a Cargo.toml file and src dir with main.rs inside it. For setting up the dependencies you need to update the Cargo.toml file. Now,it's time to update the source main.rs f

Thursday 2017-04-06 will be Anaconda Blivet-GUI Test Day ! As part of this planned Change for Fedora 26, So this is an important Test Day! We'll be testing the new detailed bottom-up configuration screen has been long requested by users and inclusion of blivet-gui into Anaconda finally makes this a reality. On the other hand, it just adds a new option without changing the existing advanced storage configuration so users that prefer the top-down configuration can still use it. to see whether it's working well enough and catch any remaining issues. It's also pretty easy to join in: all you'll need is alpha 1.7 (which you can grab from the wiki page). Anaconda grew a rather important new option in F26: as well as the two existing partitioning choices (automatic, and the existing anaconda custom part interface) there's now a *third* choice.so now you can do custom partitioning with blivet-gui run within anaconda, as well as using anaconda's own interface

Mine Shiba Inu ($shib) on Fedora/LINUX

Context Please Well, all of us has heard about the new shiny $shib. When the pump is so high, news and media just happen to cover it. That's the normal. This post is not about what $shib is or what you can do with it. This post is a basic walk through of how YOU can mine $shib at home and earn [or atleast learn what mining is]. One of most hyped thing about mining is, we need Graphics Cards [GPU] and a lot of GPUs worthing lakhs in my country. Amount of money which is very hard to shell out at one go.  So, since sometime, miners have been relying heavily on a pool. A pool is collection of computing power which will together mine of a certain type of currency. We have some coins which will require a certain quantity of vRAM to start with and there are some which will require less. Depending on the power of the GPU, you can join the pool and help with collective mining.  Now, since a lot of us don't end up having such GPUs we end up not mining at all! But what if there was a way
