Or start with going through the archive there looking for raspberry.
I tried looking at the archives. I eventually went with Arch Linux. It
was very easy to install, and runs rather nicely. The Fedora version I
had by following the instructions in the blogpost mentioned earlier in
the thread felt very sluggish compared to the snappiness of the Arch
install so I think I'll stick with this. Given that this is an RPi,
it's not surprising.
