**Purpose**:
|
|
This document serves as a general guideline for my workstation deployment process when working with Fedora Workstation 41 and up. This document will constantly evolve over time based on my needs.
|
|
|
|
## Automate Initial Configurations
|
|
```sh
|
|
# Set Hostname
|
|
sudo hostnamectl set-hostname lab-desktop-01
|
|
|
|
# Setup Automatic Drive Mounting
|
|
echo "/dev/disk/by-uuid/B865-7BDB /mnt/500GB_WINDOWS_OS auto nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0
|
|
/dev/disk/by-uuid/C006EBA006EB95A6 /mnt/640GB_HDD_STORAGE auto nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0
|
|
/dev/disk/by-uuid/24C82CFEC82CCFBA /mnt/1TB_SSD_STORAGE auto nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0
|
|
/dev/disk/by-uuid/D64E9F534E9F2AEF /mnt/120GB_SSD_STORAGE auto nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0
|
|
/dev/disk/by-uuid/16D05248D0522E6D /mnt/2TB_SSD_STORAGE auto nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0" | sudo tee -a /etc/fstab
|
|
|
|
# Install Software
|
|
sudo yum install steam
|
|
sudo dnf install @xfce-desktop-environment
|
|
|
|
# Reboot Workstation
|
|
sudo reboot
|
|
```

!!! warning "Read-Only NTFS Disks (When Using Dual-Boot)"
|
|
If you want to dual boot, you need to ensure that the Windows side does not have "Fast Boot" enabled. You can locate the Fast Boot setting by locating the "Change what the power button does" settings, and unchecking the "Fast Boot" checkbox, then shutting down.
|
|
|
|
The problem with Fast Boot is that it effectively leaves the shared disks between Windows and Linux in a locked read-only state, which makes installing Steam games and software impossible.
|
|
|
|
## Manually Address Remaining Things
|
|
At this point, we need to do some manual work, since not everything can be handled by the terminal.
|
|
|
|
### Install Software (Software Manager)
|
|
Now we need to install a few things:
|
|
|
|
- NVIDIA Drivers
|
|
- Discord Canary
|
|
- etc etc etc |
