Any update on suggested devices?
by Matthew Miller
In the meeting right after the F33 release, we talked about identifying a
handful of key devices and making sure anyone with a serious interest in
testing or enablement work has what they need. I've talked with Marie, and
while we're not overflowing with cash, Fedora does have unspent budget which
would normally have gone to travel sponsorships and this seems to be a
reasonable thing to use some of it on. IoT is a Fedora Edition, after all,
and worth investing in.
At that meeting, we talked about y'all coming up with a list of specific
hardware we can order for people. Because reimbursements are a mess right
now for unrelated reasons, it's easiest when it's something Marie can
actually go to a web store, click some buttons, and have shipped direct. Can
y'all (IoT WG and ARM SIG) come up with a formal list with prices and URLs?
(Also, if other things like microsd cards need to be included?)
Of course, once we have a list of hardware, I'd also like to send it to
people. I know there's some worry about people volunteering, getting stuff,
and not actually doing anything. We want to make sure the devices are going
to people who will actually be able to make use of them. But I also don't
want that to be a blocker, so, if you're new but serious I am willing to
consider including you too. (Perhaps with the promise that if your best
intentions don't work out, you find someone else to pass the hardware on
to.)
Rather than people emailing me at random, which is easy for me to drop, can
the WG and/or SIG come up with a list of people? I'm thinking something like
a dozen people and 1-3 devices each depending on commitment level.

Fedora 33 ARM and BTRFS
by Michael Whapples
Hello,
Should Fedora 33 on ARM use BTRFS by default?
I downloaded Fedora-Minimal-armhfp-33-1.2-sda.raw.xz image and installed
it to my Odroid XU4. Checking output from mount -l shows / mounted as
EXT4. I thought Fedora 33 was meant to use BTRFS by default.

Fedora 33 aarch64 on Helios64
by Andreas Reschke
Hi there,
I've tried to boot / install Fedora-Server-netinst-aarch64-33-1.2.iso on
my Helios64. Boot starts fine but after few seconds it stops with errors
in dracut shell.
fedora1.txt is complete bootlog
rdsosreport.txt is the generated file from dracut.
Does anybody has a tip to resolve this and get Fedora on Helios64?
Thanks

I'd like to volunteer to help ARM. Also, doesn't have any platform of
preference, where help is needed, I want to help.

orange pi r1 hangs at "Starting kernel"
by ITwrx
i have an orange pi r1 that has been in the drawer for a while, b/c it
wasn't supported by any actual distro/upstream kernel when i last tried
to use it. Now it's supported by the fedora-arm-installer (thanks!), and
i installed Fedora-Minimal-armhfp-33-1.2-sda.raw.xz with
fedora-arm-installer and that reported success. I used a new industrial
san disk sd card. i'm powering the board with an usb cable from my
desktop machine and monitoring with minicom via generic usb serial
cable. Unfortunately, everything stops when it gets to "Starting
kernel". Here is the output from minicom:

aarch64 testing enabled in openQA production
by Adam Williamson
Hi folks!
A few of you have seen this already, but just wanted to send out a
wider announcement: having been deservedly shamed by pbrobinson, I
spent most of this week working on aarch64 testing in openQA, and am
happy to announce that:
* Quite a few existing issues in tests have been fixed
* Testing coverage has been enhanced a lot to cover the Minimal, Server
and Workstation disk images, with the full set of Base tests run on
each
* aarch64 testing is now enabled on the production openQA instance!
We've had testing running on the lab (formerly known as staging)
instance for a long time now, and I've been meaning to also enable it
on production for over a year, but it kept getting delayed by this and
that (most recently, the infra move). But now it's done.
The consequences of this - beyond, of course, that you can now see
aarch64 tests in the production openQA web UI - should be that the
aarch64 results show up in the "compose check report" emails, and will
also show up in the validation wiki pages, just like x86_64 results.
openQA should fill in quite a lot of boxes in the Installation, Base
and Cloud pages for future validation events, taking some of the test
load off of manual testers. Next week I intend to enable most of the
Desktop tests on the Workstation disk image too.
I have not enabled updates testing yet, because we just don't have the
capacity, unfortunately. If we can get more testing capacity we could
do this.
