# How to fix Fedora 43 (i3) installer startup issue

December 17, 2025


After running `liveinst` from the terminal, I got this kind of error:

> webui-desktop line 197 kill no such process

Turns out, there is currently a bug where the installer wouldn't start unless you patch `/usr/libexec/anaconda/webui-desktop` by changing the line 172 from:

```shell
DEFAULT_BROWSER_CMD=$(get_default_browser)
```

to

```shell
DEFAULT_BROWSER_CMD=firefox
```
