Random hacking notes for getting Fedora 13 to kinda work with the BeagleBoard. ;)

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM

Fedora 19

An image for the BeagleBoneBlack can be found here:

http://parasense.fedorapeople.org/

Note that an 8GB sdcard is required for this image.

Setting Up A User

At first boot you need to use a monitor and use the graphical initial-setup. If you don't have a monitor - mount the sdcard and edit '/etc/passwd' and remove the 'x' from the the line beginning with 'root'
