cat -vbET '/etc/os-release' | Select-String 'CPE_NAME' has only ever returned cpe:/o:fedoraproject:fedora:40, but I’ve upgraded my packages many times. Usually every night, for approximately 4 months. Apologies for not being able to provide a better identifier - I’ve asked How to acquire specific release of installed OS? but not received an actionable answer yet.
Noteworthily, a few days ago, I endeavoured to install Windows 11 to attempt to diagnose whether Random Indefinite System Hang and crash - #10 by rokejulianlockhart was the fault of amdgpu drivers bundled in the kernel, or a fault with my hardware. I’d also been having trouble witn a network card’s Bluetooth 5.1 connection, which I’d noticed had been outputting a significant amount of iwlwifi errors in dmesg.
The first few times I installed Windows, I would immediately see a Startup Repair dialog on the bootloader to initiate chkdsk, and it would then BSOD and bootloop. After scouring the internet, I learnt that some PCIe network cards using Intel chips can cause significant problems with Windows. Indeed, removing my PCIe x2 BT 5.1 and Wi-Fi 6 card elimited 99% of the iwlwifi errors and allowed Windows to install without fault. I don’t use that card anymore, because although it might be significantly better at its job than my motherboard’s in-built one, it appears to introduce both visible and invisible problems across OSes.
I’ve installed Windows 11 Pro 24H1 or 24H2 (I’m on Release Preview). However, solely one iwlwifi error remains in dmesg when booting Fedora, so I’d like to diagnose that too, to ensure that I’ve no additional as-yet unknown problems with my build. Note that the chipset I’m using now is in-built to the motherboard, and consequently can solely be disabled on a hardware level from the UEFI’s GUI.
