I recently got Fedora 33 Server booting on my RPI 4 - 8G using the RPI4 UEFI firmware. The usb3 adapter I used worked fine with Raspbian, but with Fedora 33, there was an issue. I've worked around this issue and another involving F33 complaining about the lack of sd card. These are my brief notes, hopefully they help someone. If a longer write up or a bug report would be helpful, I'm happy to do so. Also looking for feedback if I could have done anything better/different.
Hardware:
RPI 4B - 8G model
128G "Inland" brand ssd - OEM Phison - Model 'SATA AAD'
Orico Brand SATA to USB3 external enclosure - model 'ORICO 2139U3'
- uses JMicron Technology Corp. JMS578 chip - Sata 6Gb/s
UEFI Firmware: https://github.com/pftf/RPi4/releases/tag/v1.21
After Fedora install;
- switched advanced settings in UEFI from 'ahci' to 'devicetree'
- removed 3G ram limit
Hi Zach,
thank you for sending this. By coincidence, I got my couple of RPi4
working over Christmas as well.
There seem to be around a couple of buggy/misbehaving USB adapters.
Personally, I found Jason Chambers notes very helpful[1], and I didn't
have to use any quirks. The earlier RP4 I have seems to have issues with
rebooting though, and I didn't get to the bottom of this (yet).
