Hi Folks, Join us on Friday to celebrate July with another in our series of VFADs! This is an awesome opportunity to participate in improving support for ARM processors, and to learn about architecture bootstrap. Last week, we successfully added a number of new packages to our bootstrap filesystem image and got closer to having a working F15 environment we can use to build official RPMs with hard floating point, on ARMv7 systems. It's never too soon or too late to help, and you can participate at any time, by following the instructions linked below - no need to wait for us, just let us know when you've got bits we can pull into the official rootfs (which is managed in git) we are building to bootstrap the rest. Don't forget that you can find out a lot more about the Fedora ARM project, and about getting involved by visiting the wiki: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM Which also contains links to canned images you can use to drop onto your own ARM system and hit the ground running without any installation time. Awesomeness! Jon. --- Fedora ARM hardfp activity days --- We are hosting another Fedora 15 hardfp Virtual Fedora Activity Day on Friday, at 14:00UTC (10:00 Eastern Daylight Time). The purpose of this session is to co-ordinate the bootstrap of F15 hardfp (hardware floating point). Going forward, the proposal is that these be on Fridays. You can find a lot more detail here, along with all the pre-reqs/bits: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Fedora15_HardFP_Bootstrap_Virtual_FAD_20110701 That page contains links to the general instructions on: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Fedora15_HardFP_Bootstrap Be sure you follow the instructions to use an armv7hl-YOUR_FAS_USERNAME or group name branch so that we can track who is doing what, and more easily back out changes if you/we discover a problem with your setup. _______________________________________________ arm mailing list arm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/arm
