Introduction

ARM chips are the most widely-produced processor family in the world; they have historically been used in cell phones and embedded applications, and are increasingly used in tablet devices and low-power-consumption servers.

The Fedora-ARM project is an initiative to bring Fedora to this processor family.

Fedora for ARM - Releases and Remixes

If you are looking to use Fedora on a device that isn't mentioned above it may not have official support due to licensing issues or lack of upstream support. Unofficial Fedora remixes are available for additional targets including many of the latest devices.

Raspberry Pi

Pidora, the optimized Fedora Remix released by Seneca College can be found at http://pidora.ca/ .

Creating a Fedora Remix for ARM

Many ARM boards are not yet fully supported in the upstream kernel - by using this guide you can create your own Fedora ARM disk image.

Download the Latest Development Release

Fedora 21 Alpha for ARM

The Alpha release contains all the exciting features of Fedora 21's products in a form that anyone can help test. This testing, guided by the Fedora QA team, helps us target and identify bugs. When these bugs are fixed, we make a Beta release available. A Beta release is code-complete and bears a very strong resemblance to the third and final release.
