Today i tried Fedora 35 Minimal for my first time, here are my test results:

Raspberry Pi 400 32 bit => bus width issue
Raspberry Pi 400 64 bit => hangs while show graphics
Raspberry Pi 4 B 4 GB 32 bit => kernel crash
Raspberry Pi 4 B 4 GB 64 bit => boot into setup
Raspberry Pi 4 B 8 GB 32 bit => black screen, fails to start kernel?
Raspberry Pi 4 B 8 GB 64 bit => boot into setup

At least the 32 bit issues on Raspberry Pi 4 are expected since the
kernel config doesn't have ARM_LPAE enabled.
