Fedora 17 on Raspberry Pi: Mission Possible
Just after Christmas my Raspberry Pi has arrived in a tiny-tiny box :)
Fedorize it!
How to install Fedora on it? Easy? Since I don’t have SD card writer, shame on me I used my wife’s Windows machine build-in writer, but for good. Unfortunately all Fedora instructions are for Windows 7 and Vista, but here’s how to do that in Windows XP:
- Download this GNU-licensed program: Win32DiskImager.
- Download Fedora 17 PI disk image from here
- Burn it on your SD card
- Plug it in your Raspberry Pi and turn it on
Ready
You could have also used dd for windows

Thanks :)
Cool, How fast/slow is it?
Very slow under Fedora, but it may need some optimization – this is my next tasks and I found some bugs as well, so it will be a challenge :)
Nice looking RPi case! Where did you get it? :)
From RS :) http://raspberrypi.rsdelivers.com/default.aspx?cl=1
