It's a Fedora Remix, outside of our direct control, but it seems to be
kinda dead. The good news is that I know there are some people hacking
on making less-modified Fedora work on the Pi -- Ian McLeod is demoing
it running on the Pi Zero, even. And, the Pi 2 has a much more recent
processor, and we will be able to support it directly. As I understand
it, the current hangup is that it has a boot process unlike pretty much
any other ARM device, which is painful. It's being worked on, though.

If you have a choice of hardware, you might want to consider
BeagleBone, which works really well with Fedora out of the box. And in
general for more on ARM, check out the ARM secondary arch team --
