HI everyone
I’m trying to install Fedora Minimal using the Everything ISO, but since I’m behind a firewall my access to Fedora repositories is blocked. Regularly I install Workstation offline and update after setting up a proxy.
I know there’s an option in the installer to configure a proxy, but how am I supposed to set up a proxy during installation?
Can you think of any solution that I can install Fedora Minimal?
thanks for responding.
Yes I know that, the problem is to start the proxy I need to run a client on my machine. And even with a live usb that’s possible but not with netinstall
Did you try to specify the proxy settings as described above?
Pressing the button Proxy setup… opens the proxy settings dialogue.
Then click the checkbox Enable HTTP Proxy and enter the server address and port.
I tested this in a VM running the Fedora 41 Everything netinstall image.
Yes, but that wasn’t supposed to work in the first place. My proxy provider isn’t normal http server, rather providing special transfer protocols (VLESS, VMESS, Trojan) for obfuscation purposes and therefor I need a client side service running in order to connect to the server, and this task seems impossible using netinstall.
What I was hoping for was a solution that enables me to install Minimal offline.
Sorry if I wasn’t clear providing required details.
Xray can also serve as a local HTTP/HTTPS/SOCKS proxy.
The easiest option is to run it on another host and accept client connections.
Otherwise run it locally in the text console Ctrl+Alt+F2 when installing the system.
