Re: Help understanding Anaconda source - walk through needed.
Thanks for putting me right, will have to look into this properly. I
was mainly looking at Anaconda and F20 for my HP DL140 G3 servers
which there are problems with the video with.

I'm not sure if I'm missing something or you are, but Anaconda doesn't
really distinguish between CPUs, and it does support ARM. anaconda is a
supported deployment method for Calxeda ARM systems in Fedora 20:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/F20/Installation#Calxeda...
anaconda does have a concept of *platforms*. The various platforms are
defined in blivet these days, in fact, in blivet/platform.py:
class X86(Platform):
class EFI(Platform):
class MacEFI(EFI):
class Aarch64EFI(EFI):
class PPC(Platform):
class IPSeriesPPC(PPC):
class NewWorldPPC(PPC):
class PS3(PPC):
class S390(Platform):
class ARM(Platform):
class omapARM(ARM):
and used in several places in blivet and anaconda (mainly partitioning
and bootloader installation). 'Aarch64EFI' is for aarch64 systems using
UEFI firmware, IIRC.
