Google has failed me. Can I run Fedora on a Le Potato? If so, what target
do I use?
Anything I need to do before writing the image?
I plan to use eMMC if I can get it cheap enough due to the failure rate of
SD cards.
Thanks,
Richard

I doubt it.
ARM doesn't have a standardized layout for BIOS, memory maps etc.
So you can't build ARN distros under the assumption they will work like a
PC with a AMD or Intel processor.

May not be with the bandwidth
but found what OP are talking about
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libre_Computer_Project
has columns for software
Lots of Nos
But availability
Where RPiLocator.com
Isn't finding either.
Some RPi3A+
hit lockers at MicroCenter
but I missed them...

So it doesn't look like the DT is upstream, but LibreComputer used to
do a very good firmware that likely provides an appropriate firmware.
I'm not sure of the recent state of their firmwares. We don't
currently build firmware for amlogic devices because "It's
complicated".
But if the LibreComputer have a quality firmware for the Le Potato it
likely should just work as we have the vast majority of the kernel
side enabled, if there's something missing from the kernel that will
be easy enough to fix.

I confirm I'm running Fedora on another device ("la frite", still
amlogic, but older soc).
After manually updating the firmware, I was able to run Fedora, as is,
on the device.
I don't know for sure with "le potato"
Hope this helps
