Ok, now it is clear.
If you want first help to fix the installation you made, we can try to fix that. Because I believe the
steps you done could have changed. As I do remember Cinnamon already comes with Wayland ?!
This seams to be ok exept the -y parameter. If you are a new to linux ? it is better not to use this parameter. This -y means everytime when you have to confirm with yes that the system goes ahead without confirming with y. This way you loose the important information if there is an error etc.
If Cinnamon comes with Wayland then startx is the wrong command.
We would have to confirm / check this before fixing what you already made.
If you let us know the link to the manual/tutorial you used, we try to finde the correct info or otherwise you just could:
Use The ISO file to test it for example:
- In Virtualbox / Boxes (Gnome)
- Creating a bot CD
- Or create a live boot USB stick / sd-card, to test and afterwards install it.
Simplest way to create a boot usb-stick / sd-card is to use the Fedora mediawriter
You might have to install it first.
Start the mediawriter, chose your downloaded ISO and then the usb-stick / sd-card
It is really simple.
