Hello, probably you already know, but there's a new Raspberry Pi version 2
with ARMv7 processor

I would love to see it running Fedora



Best, Sergio

As per all other devices we support we will once the support has
landed upstream in the kernel.

Hopefully Pidora will pickup armv7hl, It will be popular, and I see it 
as a response to the ODROID C1 release at the same price point.

I just ordered one, we will see

AFAIK Pidora was an ARMv6 rebuild, because Fedora builds for ARMv7
(maybe not even that at the time Pidora was built).

As the new Pi is ARMv7, there seems to be no need for a Pidora for
it (except maybe some specific things to get stock Fedora running).

If it is the manufacturer I believe it is (they told me they got the 
business some 6 mo ago), then it is new to uboot community unless they 
have been working it on the side.

My contact is a Debian guy and had it running on his prototype board.

So as I was curious I took a quick look, it looks like kernel sources / patches are here:

https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/tree/rpi-3.18.y/

Unfortunately they are not multi-platform patches, but require a kernel
build which is dedicated for the rpi, so this is not going to fly for
Fedora proper. Doing a remix should be easy though.

Hans
