Faute de mieux as the French say it, I'm running linaro on my machines . For the Fedora image I could boot ( after a long hassle and following step by step Hans's instructions ) it would have taken way too much time to get graphic acceleration properly packaged and functional. For linaro is was dd if=image.iso of=sdcard && profit.
I usually hand pick the files I need from a distro that works and then apply them to distro I want to run. For example, RedSleeve EL6 doesn't come with a kernel because there are too many SoCs to sensibly support - the official recommendation is to use whatever kernel/modules/firmware your device came with when using the EL6 userspace.
I guess the point I am getting to is that it's not an either/or case, you can have the best of both. For example, I use a Samsung Chromebook with RedSleeve and the standard ChromeOS kernel.
