Hello, I've got Banana Pi M64 on which I am able to run 2017-08-14-ubuntu-16.04-mate-desktop-beta-aarch64-bpi-m64-sd-emmc.img from http://www.banana-pi.org/m64-download.html reasonably well, except for failing WiFi connections to hidden SSID networks and for kodi being unbearably slow, even the UI and mouse movements. So seeing Ubuntu MATE not failing completely, I thought I'd give Fedora a try. I've used Fedora-Minimal-27-1.6.aarch64.raw.xz Upon boot I see U-Boot (?) output and EFI lines and then row of Tuxes and initial boot messages but then my TV goes blank. At no point during the boot (like grub interface) do I have USB (mouse, keyboard) working. When I add the dtb symlink to workaround https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1528575 I see wired networking and DHCP working. Upgrading kernel seems to break the wired networking https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1528593 but with all the other packages from updates upgraded, the board still works including wired networking and DHCP. The initial-setup.service seems to be looping during the boot and it seems to also affect dnf operations so I've disabled it. Is there any opinion about how well can Banana Pi M64 be supported by Fedora at this point, given that the board seems fine under Ubuntu MATE but that might include some non-OSS bits that we might not want in Fedora. Specifically missing at this point seems to be USB support, console after boot, and WiFi networking. Is there anything which might be useful to try? -- Jan Pazdziora Senior Principal Software Engineer, OpenShift Security Team, Red Hat _______________________________________________ arm mailing list -- arm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to arm-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
