Update:
I finally managed to get the image to the card and successfuly run it.
Maybe it's beacuse new version was released (25 Beta 1.1), because I tried
all ways you suggested. (And yes, I was on Fedora wiki before, like on all
RPi pages from F18, nothing helped me.)
So, now I have:
OS: Fedora 25 Server Beta 1.1
URL:
https://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/test/25_Beta...
FORMAT: compressed *.raw file
INSTALLATION: decompression
dd bs=4M if="/path/image.raw" of=/dev/mmcblk0; sync
However it runs anaconda installation at the beginning, so it can't be fast
deployed like other RPi OS distros. Either way it need configuration, so I
will make my own image later.
The second thing is, that it feels like it runs slow - comapared to
Raspbian or CentOS I tried on the same RPi3B.
Is it just a feeling or it is something known?
Thanks for replies!

I suspect then something is getting powered off because it doesn't
think it's needed. Will investigate.

Sure, but I wasn't sure exactly what you were after.
