I have an Olimex a10s-olinuxino-micro-4mb (https://www.olimex.com/Products/OLinuXino/A10S/A10S-OLinuXino-MICRO-4GB/open... ). It has:
Allwinner A10S CPU 4MB onboard flash memory MicroSD slot SD slot HDMI video and audio out headphone out audio line in 10/100 Ethernet port USB2 port OTG USB port LCD interface (4.3", 7", 10")
I downloaded the rawhide image Fedora-Xfce-armhfp-rawhide-20140712-sda.raw.xz. unxz'd it.
I then wrote it to a microSD card.
When it finished, I popped it out and re-inserted it so that it would mount the partitions. I read the instructions for the CubieTruck on the ARM Rawhide Installation page (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Rawhide/Installation ). I looked around in the /usr/share/uboot directory, but didn't find a directory I thought was more appropriate.
Are there any instructions for how to build the uboot .bin file? I'd like to see if I can build one that is more appropriate for my board.
I also noticed in the Known Issues & Usage Tips section that graphical display is not currently supported. Are there plans to have the graphical display working by the time Fedora 21 is released?

Right, currently rawhide pretty much only supports the cubietruck I've adding support for more models on my to-do list.

There are generic sunxi u-boot build instructions here: http://linux-sunxi.org/U-Boot#Compilation
Alternatively you can get the pre-built file for your board from the uboot partition of the allwinner remix here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/F20/Remixes
I also noticed in the Known Issues & Usage Tips section that graphical display is not currently supported. Are there plans to have the graphical display working by the time Fedora 21 is released?
No if you want to have hdmi out working you should use the remix for now.

Hans

We currently only build a uboot for the CubieTruck as the AllWinner support isn't yet completely upstream. That will change in time and we should be rebasing to 2014.07 shortly but I'm not sure what the support is like in that release.
The Fedora 20 remix looks to contain a uboot for the device, I'd extract it from there:

There's a git repo here with all the uboot bits for AllWinner. https://github.com/jwrdegoede/u-boot-sunxi.git

Not at GA. Basically when it lands in the upstream kernel we'll enable it and support it and it will then come via the standard Fedora update mechanisms.

last I looked it was the only device that had support land upstream.
