I would like to see Fedora ARM installable on popular ARM boards by 
conventional installation mechanisms (IE, anaconda) without any 
additional steps necessary.

If the bootloader is in flash, lets use the bootloader that is provided. 
  If the bootloader needs to come from the OS install, the OS install 
should provide it.  As an example using today's hardware that would mean 
using the Trimslice's built-in uboot, but providing a uboot for the 
Pandaboard during install-time.  This will hopefully increase Fedora ARM 
adoption.

Assuming somebody is willing to take this maintainership role, is there 
any objection to the above?
