Fedora-11 ARM available!

[Kedar Sovani]

Fedora-11 ARM Repositories are now available!

Details: built for ARMv5 EABI, soft-float, little endian.

Currently there are packages from three yum groups: Base, Core 
and Web-Server.

A yum-enabled pre-built root filesystem is available along with 
instructions for working with known platforms (currently Qemu, 
Sheevaplug)

The Fedora/ARM architecture wiki page has more information:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM

Do let us know any issues that you may face, or any additional 
Fedora Packages/Groups that you would like to have in the 
repositories.

Our next steps include a) making the package repository much more 
complete by building packages from more package groups (starting 
with the Gnome Desktop group) b) tracking f11-updates for these packages.

Thanks,
Kedar.

Great news!  I would really like to test F11 on my Openmoko Freerunner - 
is anyone looking at an ARMv4 build?

Regards,

Phil.

Hmm, I'm afraid that armv4 won't be supported...

Yes.

Sorry, but unfortunately, armv4 is not a priority for us right now.

We already have our hands full tracking upstream Fedora for armv5 and growing the available package set :-)
