Hi everyone!

I just joined the list. Total arm/rpi4 beginner here. Been using Fedora for a year on my personal computer (switched from Apple). Thats my background. My goal is to have my rpi4 run a webserver for my Django projects. I have been experimenting with Raspberry Pi OS, Fedora 33 and Centos 7/8 on the Raspberry. I would like to use a yum/dnf based distribution on the Pi, because I am a bit more familiar with its cli.
I believe that the CentOS-Userland-7-armv7hl-RaspberryPI-Minimal-4-2009-sda.raw image would be the way to go.

But frankly I am terrified by configuring all the different sources for the latest packages (sqlite3, django 3, and so on) and getting them to interact flawlessly without breaking the system.

Fedora does not have a native rpi4 image. They are generic and boot differently that the CentOS one.



Can I use the boot partition from CentOS-Userland-7-armv7hl-RaspberryPI-Minimal-4-2009-sda.raw combined with the Fedora Userland? Id have to disable kernel updates I guess and cross compile them myself (done that successfully yesterday).



TLDR:

My question is: How do I get the native rpi4 centos way to boot combined with fedora userland?
