Hi all.
Since the Fedora DVD are dying, Sanqui (a student of mine) designed an Open Hardware device that can attract visitors of a Fedora booth on various conferences and can copy a selected image with Fedora onto an inserted USB stick.
The prototype with build instructions is available on GitHub [1], more photos are in my tweet [2].
We also have a physical device and will test it "in production" on PyCon CZ (8‑10 June).
It has been designed to be cheap, hackable and easy to assembly. You should be able to build it quite well already, but a more robust version of the case is being developed.
If interested, feel free to reply on-list, submit an issue on GitHub or ping Sanqui directly on #fedora, #fedora-devel or #fedora-python.

This is awesome, thank you both! Zoltan from Hungary had some ideas for a similar device so it is probably a good idea to ping him. :)
For an even simpler device, is it possible to use just a normal screen and keyboard mouse combo with this?
Cheers, Nemanja
I have ordered a bunch of chinese stuff, and sadly I need to reorder my screen as it has electrically faulty parts... but yeah... almost what I have planned. Except, that I also purchased a multi SD-MMC-etc USB hub so I can give away ARM images too. Further addon is the stand with multiport charger, so we can stop people till they charge up. Otherwise nice work, lets hope this Fedorator will spread like bushfire.
Ps: I suggest to create a maker community subpage called "Fedora Blueprints" where we can provide build recipes, apps - and parts list, 3d print stuffs - 3d printer files, so we can tell to our community to what can we do with Fedora.

PS: My music machine project is progress, still waiting for the plexiglas parts.

Hey!
This is amazing. I may make one for use at home and bring it with me to events.
Is protection against usb killers planned?
Best Regards, IFo Hancroft

Not that I know of, but embedding protectors withing is possible.

This is awesome!!! Please, share pics/videos from the conference with us so we can see the prototype in action! :)

Just a +1 here, after the test run at PyCon CZ, an article or blog post detailing how to build one of these and set it up could be a very effective tool to help transition away from DVD media in a stylish and affordable way. :)
I know this would be a super cool thing to see on the Magazine when it's a little more stable!

I pinged my local FabLab with this and they replied back saying they will start printing this on Thursday morning so that we can have it for the Fedora 26 Release Party planned there early July.
