Hi. Newbie here…
I’ve got some update issues.
Can anyone please tell me what is happening - and what to do?

sudo rpm-ostree status
State: idle

ostree remote refs fedora
error: Remote refs not available; server has no summary file

sudo rpm-ostree upgrade
error: While pulling fedora/43/x86_64/kinoite: While fetching https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/43/Everything/x86_64/os/refs/heads/fedora/43/x86_64/kinoite: Server returned HTTP 404

Thx.

This looks like your ostree remote is misconfigured.

Can you paste the output of cat /etc/ostree/remotes.d/*?

Hi Micah

The definition for the fedora remote doesn’t match what I see in a freshly installed Kinoite 43 system.

core@fedora:~$ rpm-ostree status

If you update that fedora.conf file on your system to what I have shown above, you should be able to update.

The more interesting question is how your fedora.conf file got changed…

This worked perfectly..!
As for your question about what happened to fedora.conf, it’s likely that I messed it up myself. I’ve tried a few different things - and I think I’ve been careful to note the changes - but I clearly haven’t been… But the thing is, I’ve had problems with this update ever since I installed it.
Thank you very much..! :saluting_face:
