I’m looking for a Fedora 38 workstation iso. I cannot seem to find one. Fedora 40 doesn’t seem to want to play nice with my surface pro 7. Any help would be appreciated.

I’d try github.com/ublue-os/hwe?tab=readme-ov-file

Oh hell yeah, thank you!

Just fyi, that is not Fedora workstation, thats a Fedora atomic spin, which is an immutable os. Installing packages and updating works a bit different than a normal distro.

IIRC, any of the uBlue images offer to ship these by default. Hence, they might as well pick one of those instead.

Fedora 38 reached end of support in May. So even if you could find an ISO of it, it is not supported at all anymore.

Does it lock up when booting? Fedora’s kernel has issues booting on Surface devices since Fedora 39.

You either need to switch kernels (e.g. linux-surface kernel) on a different machine or switch distro.

Running an outdated Fedora version is not the solution.

There is a special .iso archive for all past releases.

probably not a good idea, you’d have to upgrade quite soon. take a look at centos or rocky Linux instead, they’re both down stream from fedora

i’ll look into it.

Rocky, cent & bluefin all have INSTALLERS and bout live iso’s. So that’s a no from me dawg. It’s a shared computer and i like to test things out before i install them. It’s a Bummer

While I don’t recommend using unmaintained version of an OS, you can find Fedora torrent files here. Might as well explore other distro if Fedora doesn’t work for your laptop. (I am biased with Solus).
