I was trying with Fedora-Server-Rawhide-20200123.n.0.aarch64.raw.xz both
directly and having got it to boot on my Pi3 first (I rather doubt that
image is functional without some adjustment).
I suppose it is possible that something has been broken since I grabbed the 20200110
build. That image did work.
In my case, I see the grub menu, but it is badly messed up, because the escape codes are
apparently not recognized. There is then a several second pause, before the kernel starts
loading. The whole boot process takes about 2 minutes in my setup.
How far does it get when you try it?
