Drive ordering mechanism /dev/sda /dev/sdb etc

I don't know about all of them, but I can tell you that the system-config-* packages are pretty much all obsolete (lvm, boot and firewall definitely are), and smart has been obsolete on Fedora for a number of versions now (I used to use it as my package manager, to be honest). I believe systemd-ui

IIRC the cuda installer lets you override the check for the gcc version (try running the installer ".run" file with the "--help" option). Note that overrides the gcc check during installation--there's no guarantee that compilations will work. Cuda uses certain gcc flags that may be deprecated
