Does anyone have some notes on how they got Fedora running on the board?

Hi Peter,

Thanks for the information.  As far as the caveats I am not using PCI-e or WiFi/BT, so neither of those are going to be an issue for me.  I figured that there was some reason for arm-image-installer not having the rock960 listed and was looking for notes on the alternative method being used to get Fedora to boot up on the rock960.  If there is going to be some generally available arm-image-installer update in February I can wait a bit longer. However, I am a willing to test out beta versions of the software.
