Hosting needed for a Fedora Remix image

[Niels de Vos]

Hi all,

last weekend I have been looking at creating a Fedora 18 Remix for the 
Genesi Smartbook. My image seems to be working fine and I'd like to 
share it with others. The only thing that currently blocks me is the 
hosting the image somewhere. If there is someone that can put the image 
on a public http/ftp server, I'd much appreciate that.

The image is not final. It works with a very minimal kernel (non RPM) 
and drivers, I hope to find time in the near future to improve it and 
get closer to reach the full Fedora experience. Which basically means, 
that the hosting will get updated images from time to time (hopefully).

Any takers?

Thanks,
Niels

PS: when someone volunteers for this, I'll add the image and some 
details and a link to the (upcoming) release announcement to the Remix 
page on the wiki:

You should be able to use your fedorapeople.org space for this.

See: 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/fedorapeople.org

If you need more quota, just file a infrastructure ticket and explain
why and how much you need.

See above. ;)

Also, I have a smartbook, would love to try and get it up and running
on a more recent fedora soon.

Thanks! Ticket filed. When I've uploaded the image, I'll send an 
announcement to this list with instructions.

It's not very stable yet, but it is definitely a start. Testers and 
reports of issues and suggestions for improvements will be welcome.  
I also hope to be able to provide complete instructions to build your 
own kernel, so that anyone can test potential patches themselves.

Cheers,
Niels
