been meaning to put up some links here for ages

http://ausil.us/smartbook/smartbook-rootfs-f13.tar.bz2
http://ausil.us/smartbook/boot.tar.bz2

put the unpacked boot tarball on the first partition on a sdcard formated ext3 and the unpacked rootfs on the second partion formated ext4. insert the sdcard into a efika machine and boot. it will boot the fedora 13 XFCE image.


it is using fbdev for X

Thanks, great news! I'll test it next week, once back at home at my computers.

I have also seen ARM activity on the Fedora devel mailing list, about porting Fedora 15. What is the current status? There were no more posts or wiki updates ( http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architect ... _Bootstrap ) since mid July...

I never could get F13 to boot properly on my Efika MX, I'll try this in a few days. Also, you can monitor the Fedora on ARM progress via their IRC channel at #fedora-arm on Freenode(irc.freenode.net)

It is still moving along, there is a couple of hurdles remaining but it shouldnt be too far off, we will then be skipping f16 and going straight to rawhide to catch up and hopefully do a f17 release at the same time as the primary arches.

Is the Fedora 13 build fairly complete and stable for the efika MX smarttop?
Is it suitable for general use/development or is it better to stick to Debian - especially for an ARM noob like myself!

Wow! I just noticed my join date and post count! A bit freaky eh? :shock:

its very stable and complete. there is some of the multimedia bits that are not as good as they could be. if your used to fedora then id say it will be fine.
