Use F-21 or rawhide images, the process is outlined here [1] > What steps should someone in this situation take to align themselves with > latest armv7 hf kernel and boot-related pieces that will work on Cubieboard > 2? Kernel is upstream. We don't currently have a uboot that supports the Cubieboard 2 but that will come as part of the uboot 2014.10-rc2 release that should be in Fedora in 3-4 weeks.
