Installing alongside Windows

If you already have Bootcamp installed, you might notice that the boot option for Bootcamp instead boots you into Fedora. This is because GRUB automatically shares with a Windows installation. Follow this guide on triple booting to get Windows working again.

My boot hangs before getting to the installer

This may be due to differences between USB-C to USB-A adapters. Try a different one if it is not working.

My touchbar is blank

Follow the instructions in the post-install guide. If it still is not working, try updating your macOS instalation.

My keyboard won't light up (only applies to some hardware)

This sometimes doesn't work on Fedora, we are working on a fix. For now, you can't really do anything about it. This is only affects the internal Apple keyboard, it will not affect your external keyboard. This also only occurs on Fedora, the backlight works on all other ditros.

I get an error about the bootloader when installing

Download the latest ISO, then try again. Make sure you are using the T2 Fedora iso.

My Wi-Fi stops working after suspending

Add this to /etc/systemd/system-sleep/unload-wifi.sh:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
if [ "${1}" = "pre" ]; then
    systemctl stop NetworkManager
    modprobe -r brcmfmac_wcc
    modprobe -r brcmfmac
elif [ "${1}" = "post" ]; then
    modprobe brcmfmac
    systemctl start NetworkManager
fi
