[Arm-dev] Raspberry Pi 3 and Aarch64 image?

[Richard Henwood]

Apologies for top posting.


I've been using kraxel's AArch64 fedora 24 for a few weeks now and I really like it. Wifi just-works and it's nice and lightweight. One thing I have discovered is that the image seems to be built from the source rpm here:

https://www.kraxel.org/repos/qcom/kernel-main/kernel-main-4.6.4-1.src.rpm


(I needed source so I could build device-mapper and zfs modules).

best regards,
Richard

Some of it went into u-boot's upstream already ->

And also kraxel has fedora arm64 images now ->
