-2. Access to a Rocky Linux 10 VM with IP `10.17.3.36`
+2. Access to a Fedora Rawhide Cloud VM with IP `10.17.3.250`
 3. SSH key authentication configured with `~/.ssh/terraform_key`
 4. Root privileges or sudo access on the target VM
+5. Gitea registration token (to be placed in runner_setup.yml)
 
 ## How to Use
 
 1. **Install Ansible** (if not already installed):
+
    ```bash
    # For CentOS/RHEL/Fedora
    sudo yum install ansible

 ## What This Does
 
 This automation will:
-1. Connect to the specified Rocky Linux VM
-2. Update the system packages
-3. Install necessary dependencies (git)
-4. Create a dedicated gitea-runner user
-5. Set hostname to rocky10
-6. Download and install Gitea Runner v0.2.13
-7. Configure systemd service for automatic startup
-8. Start the Gitea Runner service
 
-The result is a fully configured Gitea Runner that will automatically start on system boot, ready to execute Gitea Actions workflows.
+- Connect to the specified Fedora Rawhide Cloud VM
+- Update the system packages and reboot if required
+- Install necessary dependencies
+- Set hostname to fedora-rawhide10
+- Create a dedicated gitea-runner user
+- Download and install Gitea Runner
+- Configure systemd service for automatic startup
+- Register the runner with Gitea using the provided token
+- Start the Gitea Runner service
+- The result is a fully configured Gitea Runner that will automatically start on system boot, ready to execute Gitea Actions workflows.
 
 ## Troubleshooting
 
 If you encounter issues:
+
 - Verify SSH connectivity to the target VM
 - Ensure Ansible can reach the specified IP address
-- Check that `~/.ssh/terraform_key` has correct permissions
+- Check that ~/.ssh/terraform_key has correct permissions (600)
 - Review output logs for specific error messages
+- Make sure the registration token is valid
