Hello all, I am in need of some advice. I have received a tablet for my
birthday (Acer Iconia Tablet A200-XE) My question is, is there a way to
install Fedora on the tablet?
That will depend if its unlocked, if there is a Fedora kernel for that
exact ARM board (unlike most PC platforms ARM platforms are very varied).
In addition the standard Fedora desktop is a bloated memory hungry blob
so I imagine it would suck on this hardware, especially if you didn't
have an accelerated 3D X server.
However you've got some chance of getting Debian on it

is the thread working on this stuff.
Excellent!....thanks for this info, as it stands right now I don't think
they've "perfected" the exact recipe for getting Fedora onto tablets as
yet, but I can always hope that in the future they'll nail it. I think
I'm going to go with Debian, only because it appears to have the least
problems running on the various hardware out there.....until then I'll
keep on chugging with my Fedora 217 laptop! Thanks again for the link
and the info...
Hi Eddy,
I am also interested in this and I do have a toy to play with. with no
consequences. In case you are able to, could you please document
somewhere all the steps you undertook to get this to work?
Many thanks,
Ranjan
Will do Ranjan!
