I had the same experience with the beaglebone black, No hdmi and no usb support = no good.
Why bother releasing an image that is not functional. I am a big fedora fan & promoter, but I went
to debian wheezy 7.2 for my BBB ham radio setup. I create HR rpm's for arm systems and
Pidora 19 alpa is a disappointment with the repository in a mess, too many 'missing requires' ;

No ftdi support in the base image kernel, not able to update kernel getting 'obsoleted' etc.
I can install my rpms ok, but cannot connect a ftdi device to use it.

I intend to do this software in rpm's for Pidora 19 & BBB > Fedora 20 when it is ready.

I wonder why Debian are so far in front of Fedora on these fronts?
Fedora always had a reputation for great hardware support, but not here not now.
