$ sudo dnf install -y akmods kernel-devel-5.8.15-301.fc33 Install the development packages with the following: You can check these using 'uname -r' and list the installed kernel packages using 'sudo dnf list kernel': The goal is to use this machine as a general purpose computer in a classroom for high school students.
