Glad the boot option worked, hope it’ll work out with the drivers installed.

And if you have not yet installed RPM-fusion and Nvidia drivers properly - you could take a look at the Graphics section on this writeup: https://github.com/wz790/Fedora-Noble-Setup
Can you edit the kernel parameters in Grub (by pressing E on the Fedora alternative) and try adding
nomodesetornvidia_drm.modeset=0at the end of the line starting withlinux /boot/vmlinuzor similar. Then CTRL+X to start with the new (temporary) parameters.If that boots (and if you’ve installed the Nvidia drivers etc) - try forcing a rebuild of kmods and wait 5-10 minutes before restarting.
sudo akmods --force --rebuild
You can see if it’s don’t by runningsudo journalctl -f -u akmodsMaybe you have to remove the kmod prior, can’t recall:
dnf remove kmod-nvidia-$(uname -r)
So true 😂 Both at work and private side projects 👏

Linux@lemmy.ml•[HELP] Transition from Windows 11 to Fedora KDE on 2018 Surface Pro 6 (incl. Dual Boot)
2·7 months agoHey, I wrote a simple intro recently from guiding two friends into Fedora KDE without any previous knowledge. Its just an introduction really, but covers some basics.
https://mag37.org/posts/guide_newtolinux/
It does not cover dual booting though. As they both decided to fully swap after brief testing.
Others already mentioned Ventoy and that bricking isn’t really a risk - the worst you’d encounter is a complete wipe and restart so make sure you’ve got things backed up either way.



Nice!
I’ve never really ran any of the immutable/atomic distros for daily driver so can’t give you tips from experience. But this seemed sensible (but a bit in depth, maybe just take parts of it). https://lurkerlabs.com/fedora-silverblue-ultimate-post-install-guide/
And if you’re looking at atomic/immutable, also check out Bluefin, Aurora and Bazzite (based on Fedora).
Good luck!
