Hey, Today I start my PC as normal. There is an update that I’m trying to install, containing the new KDE version (6.7). I cannot do the update through the UI, it fails, saying to me that “Failed to apply offline update”, something like that. So, I open the terminal to perform the update there: s…

Failed partial upgrade from 43 to 44 leaves system confused - #2 by vgaetera

You have a partially upgraded system - you state you’re on Fedora 44, but you have repos in there for Fedora 43. Are you actually trying to upgrade from 43 to 44 or are you just trying to installed the latest updated? I assume the former, given that you are running on an F43 kernel. If the former,…

i though i updated to fedora 44 since in system settings it said i’m on 44. But ye seems like i’m in a weird partial state. I will try your link, thanks. I wonder if this is just the old kernel version that is still on 43. Since I just cannot start the new kernel version, there is another error me…

Ok, it worked, I can now access my DE back! I need to remember this command. However, as far as I understand, my system is still kind of broken? At least, the updates are, right? Is there any way to know (without breaking the system again, now i’m afraid of typing dnf upgrade lol). Thanks for your…

Splendid - I assume you’re able to boot a kernel and get to your KDE desktop. Welcome back! :slight_smile: Let’s see what kernel you’re currently running and what you have installed: Please post the output of uname -r, lsblk -f and ls -al /boot, all as preformatted text please, or the formatting l…

I meant Discover, sorry, not Discord. Here the command outputs: uname -r 7.0.12-201.fc44.x86_64 deewens@fedora:~$ lsblk -f NAME FSTYPE FSVER LABEL UUID FSAVAIL FSUSE% MOUNTPOINTS loop0 squashfs 4.0 …

OK - you have a little issue but one which you might be happy to let take care of itself: -rw-------. 1 root root 88778303 Jun 24 01:10 initramfs-7.0.12-201.fc44.x86_64.img -rw-------. 1 root root 81553656 May 24 11:54 initramfs-7.0.9-105.fc43.x86_64.img [elided] -rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 18442600…
