General Installation instructions for all Releases
Aarch64 SBSA/SBBR compliant hardware
Machines which conform to the standard system architecture and boot requirements can be installed using normal fedora installation methods. Those methods are documented in the version specific installation instructions here https://docs.fedoraproject.org/.
Arm Image Installer
The examples provided here are from a Fedora 31 host and may need to be adjusted depending on your host environment.
Used to deploy disk images for ARMv7hl as well as a limited set of Aarch64 SBCs. Execute the following script as a user with sudo privileges. It will copy the selected disk image and write the appropriate U-Boot for the target hardware platform. Optionally you can also enable and disable SE Linux and remove the root password requirement (allowing log in without completing initial setup). To add a board not listed, simply create a bash scriptlet with the commands needed to copy U-Boot to media and add to the 'boards.d' (/usr/share/arm-image-installer/boards.d) directory.
sudo dnf -y install arm-image-installer
Usage: arm-image-installer <options> --addconsole - Add system console to extlinux.conf --addkey= - /path/to/ssh-public-key --image=IMAGE - xz compressed image file name --media=DEVICE - media device file (/dev/[sdX|mmcblkX]) --norootpass - Remove the root password --resizefs - Resize root filesystem to fill media device --supported - List of supported hardware --target=TARGET - target board --version - Display version and exit -y - Assumes yes, will not wait for confirmation Example: arm-image-installer --image=Fedora-Rawhide.xz --target=Bananapi --media=/dev/mmcblk0
All available targets are stored in a file called SUPPORTED-BOARDS:
cat /usr/share/doc/arm-image-installer/SUPPORTED-BOARDS
Network Installation
A network installation is the preferred installation method for current Aarch64 hardware targets but can also be used for ARMv7hl. In order to begin you will need to setup the installation server, a guide can be found below:
