We have a bunch of tools for footprint optimisation, but those need some more work before we'll make them generally available. Of course, if you really want, you could run the NFS-enabled kernel images on your n800/n810 and chroot into a Fedora/ARM filesystem mounted over NFS. :-) -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
