Hi all,
I want to use the armhf fedora rootfs on the aarch64 bit kernel.
When I ran the dnf command on the armhf image with aarch64 kernel, the
dnf command was failed with below error.
dnf -v install mesa
cachedir: /var/cache/dnf
DNF version: 1.1.6
Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'rpmfusion-free-updates' from
'http://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/mirrorlist?repo=free-fedora-updates-released-22&arch=aarch64':
Cannot prepare internal mirrorlist: No URLs in mirrorlist, disabling.
repo: using cache for: fedora
not found updateinfo for: Fedora 22 - aarch64
repo: using cache for: updates
not found deltainfo for: Fedora 22 - aarch64 - Updates
not found updateinfo for: Fedora 22 - aarch64 - Updates
Actually, armhf binaries/rootfs can be executed even aarch64
kernel(fully compatible with armhf).
Maybe the dnf command tries to find its repo from uname call.
$ uname -m
aarch64
The rpm install was also failed because fedora doesn't have any rpm
platform file
So, I added below file. It is able to install armhf rpm file even
aarch64 kernel.
cat /etc/rpm/platform
armv7hl-fedora-linux-gnu
The question is 'how can I run 'dnf' command on armhf fedora with
aarch64 kernel?'
