I can answer any of them also :) The reason it says that is because we don't want people doing cross-builds out of frustration (at the speed) or out of whatever missconceived notion otherwise well intended. Fedora is native built and that's how this is going to be done. It's ok to use distcc if setup but there have been some problems with the model network so we are currently not using that (on my todo is to investigate the network traffic and ponder hacks to fix the timestamp issues in lieu of a fix to the model itself). "Foundation Model" and "Fast Models" (the paid version) are interchangeable as far as these instructions are concerned, but we don't want to use anything else at this time. There will be real hardware in due course. > Also, distcc shouldn't be used for *official* Fedora RPMs, but if > you're running stage2, you aren't building RPMs anyway, so it's fair > to use distcc.

Generally, it's ok to do distcc at this stage because we're going to rebuild again, but otherwise we do want to be as native as possible.
