[QUOTE="deeptho, post: 1117977, member: 215446"] Fever has gone... On fedora, the best way to proceed is to first install a working fedora. I am currently on 34, but am using modules compiled on an earlier version. With media_build you need a bit of luck. It is important to install kernel-devel for the kernel you are running while building. In case of troubles, you can use my modules, which will work on fedora 34 (and probaby any other recent one like 31, or 33). The link below will autodestruct after a few weeks: [URL]https://0x0.st/-wjc.gz[/URL] It should be installable like [FONT=courier new]cd / sudo tar -xf /tmp/xxx.tar.gz where /tmp/xxx.tar.gz is the file downloaded from the above link[/FONT] This will install the modules (media_build + blindscan) The next thing to do is generate an initramfs. On fedora this is highly automated, which is typically why things somtimes go wrong in mysterious ways. I use a command like [FONT=courier new]dracut -f /boot/initramfs-5.9.15-200.fc33.x86_64.img 5.9.15-200.fc33.x86_64[/FONT] but you can try to official way of doing it, which involves /etc/dracut.conf After that you need to update the grub config file. Again, this has become automated too much to my taste but /etc/grub2.cfg is what you need. Before doing any of this, save a copy of grub.cfg and related files (they could be in multiple places, but typically somewhere in /boot) Before rebooting double check the newly generated files by comparing them to the previous ones. Also keep the install disk at hand. With it, you can solve any boot-related problem, but it is not always easy. PS. If you can find the exact kernel online (google for 5.9.15-200.fc33.x86_64 fc33 rpm) then maybe an easier approach is to install that official kernel first and get it working first. Afterwards you can then overwrite the /lib/modules/5.9.15-200.fc33.x86_64/... files with the provides ones and everything should work (well on modern computers with uefi may things can go wrong. Turn off secure boot in the bios if you cannot boot changed kernels....) Of course none of this is needed if media_build works... [/QUOTE]
