I'm having one issue at the moment. When I came to install “C Development Tools and Libraries” I feel as though it installed same subset of the usual tools. ditto for “Development Tools”(installed nothing empty package list) and for “Container Management”(installed nothing empty package list). Your dnf group install "System Tools" displays a list of packages but tha

t’s not the group I want.
<omac777_2022>
Any advice as to making dnf list the packages within a group?

are there any NVME i should stay away from, btw?
<omac777_2022>
neil, I don't think there nvme's to stay away, but if you do use one with the VF2, make sure you have a power supply with sufficient wattage to support all your peripherals. There are reports of weird error surfacing when you use the lower wattage usb power supplies. 10Watts == bugs, 20Watts(no bug reports yet), 60Watts(somebody has one. no bug reports yet)
<neil>
that's... a good call out. thank you :)
<neil>
i need to put together some sort of harness to keep this all managed better.. have two VF2 and a VF1 so far...
<omac777_2022>
neil are you talking test harness or some 3d printed case for your boards?
<omac777_2022>
The vf2 forums did mention some adjustable 3d printed case. brb
<omac777_2022>
I don't have a case yet either. I'm still reflecting about which one I should get. I wish Starfive and their team would recommend an official one to make it dead simple and save time, but I understand different people have different requirements.

I'm already feeling there were more pcie lanes available on the board for the nvme to take advantage of. Most nvme's have 4pcie lane capability within their controllers, but the VF2 only provides one pcie lane to communicate with it if I understood correctly. If they push out another board to correct that, I would buy it.
