| This documentation is about using Raspberry Pi Foundation "downstream kernel" and components on a Fedora (or CentOS) userspace. As with Fedora, this process is compatible with Raspberry Pi 2 and later model (No original Raspberry Pi or Pi Zero support is planned). Unless using a Raspberry Pi 4 with 8Gio of RAM. It's recommended to use the 32bit version over the 64bit. For graphics usage, it's really recommended to have a Raspberry Pi 4 which default to the vc4/v3d driver. |
This documentation is about using Raspberry Pi Foundation [[https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux|downstream kernel]] and components from Fedora userspace. The Workstation flavor is recommended for the Raspberry Pi 4 B/400 with >=4GB RAM platform. The Server flavor is usable on starting from Raspberry Pi 3 B/B+. |

About this Howto
This documentation is about using Raspberry Pi Foundation downstream kernel and components from Fedora userspace. The Workstation flavor is recommended for the Raspberry Pi 4 B/400 with >=4GB RAM platform. The Server flavor is usable on starting from Raspberry Pi 3 B/B+.
Kickstart files
Kickstart files are located at https://pagure.io/fork/dwrobel/fedora-kickstarts repository and are based on the original Fedora 38 files with the following modifications:
The modifications in livecd-tools and pykickstart allows to generate image with selected downstream kernel (despite it has lower version) over the upstream one. On a system, all aforementioned repositories are installed with priority=50 option to instruct 'dnf' to choose packages from this repository, rather then Fedora default.
Pre-built images (f38)
The location of pre-generated images for Fedora 36 can be found below:
Pre-built images (f37)
The location of pre-generated images for Fedora 36 can be found below:
Updating Raspberry Pi 4 bootloader EEPROM
Follow the gist available at: https://gist.github.com/dwrobel/266ad5d4e59b05ea26d8bb6725118578.
Configurations
Booting from external USB drive
Write the image to the external drive, then mount the filesystem and change root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 to root=/dev/sda2 in the /boot/efi/cmdline.txt.
Resizing filesystem
After booting the system, please consider to resize the filesystem. The following example assumes system booted from internal SD card.
sudo growpart -u on /dev/mmcblk0 2 sudo btrfs filesystem resize max /
