I assume your going to all this trouble because you can't use Mint...Am I correct?
Eh, what? NO! I said up above that I'm on Mint 18.3 now.
The only reason I was using Fedora before is because
1) It's what I know.
2) It's what I've used on my desktop since like Fedora Core 6
3) I work with a lot of Redhat systems
However, I'm on Mint now because Fedora has become unusable for me.
