It is not my job to tell the people contributing to the CentOS ARMv7 project what to do with their images. I personally have more than enough work to do (more work than I have hours available in a day) on the Fedora ARM project so I have _ZERO_ interest in getting involved in another project that duplicates a bunch of that work. I am more than happy for that project to use the work Fedora has already done over the past years, the lessons we've learnt to make their paths easier. I have engaged with a bunch of people and will continue to do so to answer questions and provide direction and suggestions but the work is for them to do. >> It's now hosted on pagure too so you can easily submit enhancements, >> fixes, documentation pull requests. > > > I am going to have to remember my FAS account... > > For those boards with sata (cuibes, wands?, linksprites?), you can put just > the uboot on the mSD and the image on a USB connected sata.

I did a variant of the script to have a 2nd media] That's why "contributing" is for, I agree it's a useful use case, but it's a minor one that not many people wish to do, it can actually be done here with just the update-uboot script in the package to write the mSD, and then just write the SATA device with the --target=none options > allowed for just the uboot, and sent that to Paul some months back.

Maybe you could contribute a pull request to the project with such a feature, this isn't a thread to dump a list of features you want others to do, it's a thread for people who wish to contribute something other than requests for others.
