Those RPMs can be installed on a native ARM machines and are not intended to be cross installed. So you need a real ARM machine running Linux to install those RPMs natively or you can emulate ARM machine on your workstation using QEMU. Note that the RPMs are built with armv5tejl configuration (ARMv5TE instruction set for little-endian ARM). > What's the corret way to add new rpms to rootfs-f8? I suggest you start reading from - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM?highlight=(arm) If you don't have real ARM hardware and willing to use the emulation through QEMU then the following howto is very usefull - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/HowToQemu > > Thank you, > > Francesco > > > _______________________________________________ > fedora-arm mailing list > fedora-arm@xxxxxxxxxx > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-arm _______________________________________________ fedora-arm mailing list fedora-arm@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-arm
