ARM Fedora works excellently. Really solves so many problems you would otherwise have getting any kind of quality from the rootfs, solid packaging, package availability by yum and so on. > The non-existency of kernel packages (together with means for their > updating) is another issue that blocks wider adoption.

Fedora rootfs basis really really suits being on SD card not raw NAND if you can help it. With SD you can format the thing ext4 and it's very hard to tell you are not on a normal Fedora box. I don't think lack of kernel packages is a problem, when someone targets a board with Fedora they will naturally make their own kernel package for the board. The kernel package I made for txtr simply copies stuff to the name the bootloader expects in the /boot partition. -Andy _______________________________________________ arm mailing list arm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/arm
