What is included in the Alpha release?
The Alpha release includes prebuilt images for Versatile Express (QEMU), Trimslice, Pandaboard and Highbank hardware platforms. Prebuilt images can be written directly to SD Card, USB, or SATA drive and booted without any additional steps or configuration.
Release Notes
- This test images include the updates-testing repository enabled by default.
- Images were composed using tools in Fedora 17 due to continuing work on Fedora 18.
- When using the images on the Pandaboard and Trimslice the system will automatically reboot twice by default for the following:
- repartition the root filesystem on first boot. To prevent this delete the '.rootfs-repartition' flag in '/' or by passing a kernel command line argument of 'nofsresize'.
- The image will automatically be relabeled for SE Linux, this may take some time and will reboot when finished.
- Additional Release Notes
- Common F18 Bugs
