Hello,
I would like to buy a Odroid M1 (CPU RK3568B2, petitboot as bootloader). Is there any change to install Fedora on it? Even a headless installation would be nice.
Greetings Andreas
Hi,
I would like to buy a Odroid M1 (CPU RK3568B2, petitboot as bootloader). Is there any change to install Fedora on it? Even a headless installation would be nice.
So there's a couple of bits here: 1) Never dealt with petitboot on arm (I have on POWER) but the only boot interface Fedora arm officially supports is UEFI so if petitboot implements that and also provides a DT to the kernel it may work. Essentially any device firmware should comply with the Arm SystemReady IR spec and it should be good. 2) The rk356x support is maturing upstream, all the upstream pieces are available in Fedora display may even work 3) Device tree (DT), if the firmware provides a DT and it's compatible with the upstream kernel it should work, else there currently needs to be
Generally Odroid has been pretty hostile to the wider open source community so it's a best effort means of support, no one I'm aware of that regularly helps out on Fedora Arm has any Odroid devices so it's fix things we explicitly get reported from the community where we can.
If you explicitly want something with the rk356x SoCs in it I would look at some of the others like the Pine64 Quartz64 or another similar more community friendly vendor

Hello together, Hello Peter,
I've a look at the Pine64 store and didn't found what I'm looking for.
Requirements:
- CPU: min 4 core @ 2 GHz
- RAM: min 8 GB
- Storage: PCIe M.2 M-KEY (SSD) Socket, eMMC + SD-Card
- Ethernet: Gigabit
- USB3 + USB2
I've found Orange Pi 5 (http://www.orangepi.org/html/hardWare/computerAndMicrocontrollers/details/Or...) but it's not available yet.
Will this device work with Fedora? Are there other devices with this requirements ?
Thanks
Andreas

It will eventually, the support upstream isn't complete yet for the rk3588, hardware with that SoC is only just starting to ship. I am getting a Rock5 board which is based on the same SoC which I ordered back in May and I got a shipping notification yesterday.

Hello Peter,
thanks for that info, Please keep the list up2date with that board.

Hello Peter,
thanks for that info, Please keep the list up2date with that board.
I generally don't post updates about board or SoC support to the list, it's not my job to send status emails, sorry I have better things to do than remember what devices/SoCs may or may not be interested in. We have weekly arm meetings, you can follow upstream, and occasionally for important devices like the RPi4 we will do a feature.
Peter
