Well I got my first Cubieboard.  A C2.  It is booting Android, but so
far I can't get ethernet working; it is reporting 'disconnected'.

But I want to be able to boot either Android or Fedora.  I am told that
the boot process checks for rootfs on an SD card and if it finds it,
boots that, if not it boots what is in NAND.

So I am trying to find the tutorial for installing Fedora (and I
naturally want F20).  I get it that to do an update I will need a
'--exclude kernel*' option.
You might be better off going with Rawhide[1]. We don't offer uboot for
the Cubie2 but the kernel should work. If it does, please let us know :)

This is a first time for me, so please a little help.

I can run the script on my Fedora 20 notebook (lenovo x120) to the microSD card in the SD card slot (will have to use disk utility to get the dev name). And I do I umount the SD card before running the script?

What is uboot for?  I assume I can find one on cubieboard.org for the c2?

And since this is rawhide, I will have to recompile the hipl code (probably needed to do that anyway for arm platform): http://infrahip.hiit.fi/ Yes one of purposes of this box is HIP testing. On Android and Fedora.

thanks
