Part 1: Managing Software and Repositories with DNF
Next, we will add the '''epel repository''' (Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux) and install '''Alien'''. '''Alien''' is a tool for converting packages for other package managers (such as debian, which end with .deb) to another (such as red hat, which end with .rpm).
Possible Packages to install from epel:
# Cinnamon
# Chromium
 
# To add the epel repository, issue the commands:<br><b><code><span style="color:#3366CC;font-size:1.3em;">sudo subscription-manager repos --enable codeready-builder-for-rhel-9-$(arch)-rpms <br> sudo dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-9.noarch.rpm</span></code></b>
# Install alien:<b><code><span style="color:#3366CC;font-size:1.3em;">sudo dnf install alien</span></code></b>
