Description

Linux kernel vanilla repositories for Fedora

This copr provides vanilla kernels from the Linux kernel series Fedora Linux currently uses or will likely receive within days. This typically means:

• For stable releases of Fedora Linux: the latest kernel from the newest stable series or its predecessor.
• For pre-releases of Fedora Linux: mainline or the latest stable series, depending on how close the release is and how it aligns with the kernel cycle.
• For Fedora Linux rawhide: mainline.

This is the first of seven coprs allowing you to quickly, comfortably, and cleanly install vanilla kernels from different Linux series. The offered packages are built just like Fedora's kernels and perfect for both quick tests and regular day-to-day use.

Installation Instructions

Enable this copr like any other, e.g. by running sudo dnf copr enable @kernel-vanilla/fedora. Afterwards update your system, as your package manager then will install the latest kernel from this copr. On commodity x86-64 systems you’ll also have to disable Secure Boot, as your firmware otherwise will likely refuse to boot kernels from this copr.

A page dedicated to the kernel vanilla copr repositories for Fedora Linux explains this in more detail. It also provides a lot of additional information. Among them the differences between the seven coprs and why most of them include others as a runtime dependency – which is why some of the coprs occasionally look empty, outdated, or abandoned, when in fact everything is working as intended.
