Well, the good news is that EL9 being based on F34, can be easily bootstrapped and rebuilt on F34. And since EL9 will be maintained until 2032+, there is plenty of scope to have EL9 on arm32 supported for the foreseeable future.

Or specific NAS boxes and leave this behind. I am looking at the Synology and Asustor NAS for just a mail server and a DNS server. Internal NAS I went with QNAP, but as decent as QNAP is for SMB, it just does not cut it for these other servers. I was given the QNAP, so that was a big incentive to use it to replace my 10+ yearold CLEAROS server. But so far Synology or Asustor are leading as I look at retiring from this OS stuff other than my notebook's Fedora.
I may have a LOT of Cubieboards (2 and3) available for cheap.

Greetings and long time not been around.
I am looking at getting a current Centos-arm DNS server going and managed with Webmin instead of doing it myself (currently running my DNS on Cubieboard2 and Centos7 all zones hand-crafted).
So I was looking at getting Centos8-arm and noticed that EoL is 6/30/2024! What?
I have a lot of questions in order to try and answer anything here. When you are speaking about arm, do you mean arm32 or aarch64? Also where did you see the EoL notice? CentOS Stream 8 does end in June 30, 2024 but I don't know where anything mentions CentOS Linux arm for that date.
I should have said, arm32.
So arm32 is a special case being run by a volunteer. The download page you pointed to only covers EL7. EL8 support for ARM32 may be gone and would be hard to continue due to the fact that it is done on EOL hardware. [ It is either done on some donated older hardware or done as virtual machines on Ampere systems which allowed for that. Newer models do not have any ARM32 support in them]. Due to the lack of hardware support and the fact that a lot of software is having a harder time compiling due to the standard 4GB limit, I am expecting that Debian and Yocto will be the only large distributions for ARM32 with 4 years or so.

Hello Robert,
even Fedora will leave the support of arm32 at next release (Fedora 36, Info from Peter Robinson?) I have removed all my Odroid HC1 running as server for various things (DNS, Mail, httpd, Pihole, ...) and replaced with with Raspberry Pi4 on Almalinux and x86_64 Mini-PC also running with Almalinux. So nothing more with arm32.
I'm a fan of CentOS for many years (since CentOS 5).
