Hi,
I can confirm this method works fine for Fedora Beta 40. That's great, I
will be able to use standard Fedora 40 next month.
I had to overcome two problems:
- My keyboard behind a USB switch would not work in UEFI, I had to
directly connect it. In Fedora it would work again behind the switch.
- The ACPI/DTB setting needed to be set on "ACPI". "DTB" or "Both" would
not work for me.
Thanks,
Pim

Hello,
I've installed Fedora 40 Rawhide on my Rock 5
Short howto:
What you need:
1)
https://github.com/edk2-porting/edk2-rk3588/releases/download/v0.9.1/rock-5b_UEFI_Release_v0.9.1.img
dd this Image on a SD-Card
2)
https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/aarch64/iso/Fedora-Everything-netinst-aarch64-Rawhide-20231113.n.0.iso
dd this Image on a USB stick
Put both in your Rock 5B and boot. I've done the Net-install
installation with KDE Wayland. The SD-Card with UEFI is needed for booting.
Questions:
1. GPU:
root(a)rockpi5:~# inxi -Gx
Graphics:

How can I improve GPU Performance ? Mali / Panfrost Driver are available
but not loaded /used
root(a)rockpi5:~# rpm -ql mesa-dri-drivers-23.3.0-1.fc40.aarch64 | grep -i
pan
/usr/lib64/dri/panfrost_dri.so
root(a)rockpi5:~# rpm -ql mesa-dri-drivers-23.3.0-1.fc40.aarch64 | grep -i
mali
/usr/lib64/dri/mali-dp_dri.so
root(a)rockpi5:~#
Creating a custom xorg.conf doesn't make sense while using Wayland ?
2. Boot
Is there any way to boot Fedora direct from NVME instead using
rock-5b_UEFI_Release_v0.9.1.img on SD-Card ?
Thanks
Andreas
