CLOSED: Fedora 21 Server Minimal Install Vs. Fedora Server

[kalbers33]

Hello,

I have been trouble installing Fedora 21 Server Minimal install (it seems to install correctly, but when I boot the unit never gets to the command prompt, the load bars at the bottom start going for a while until it seems to be done, and it just stops). However, installing with exactly the same partition settings and (root, boot, swap, and efi) but with Fedora Server selected instead of minimal install, the server boots and works just fine.

Since I have not been able to find the differences between between the Minimal install and Fedora Server (I thought it would just be default packages installed, but that shouldn't effect if it can boot at all), I was wondering if using the full Fedora Server would cause problems with Amahi 8?

The hardware is an Intel NUC5, in case anyone happens to know why Minimal install won't boot.

Thanks!

Using full server vs minimal install should not be an issue. You will have more packages installed than needed, but if you have the drive space then no big deal.

Great, thank you! I have plenty of drive space, 250 gigs for the root partition
