Hi, I know that there have been versions of Fedora released for the RaspberryPi in the past, Pidora being the most prominent to my knowledge. Is there a way to install the latest Fedora21 ARM release to my new RPI2? I'm reading about u-boot things and it's all a little beyond me. Google hasn't provided any useful information either so I came here... Thanks in advance, apologies if I've asked on the incorrect mailing list,

Not entirely true, Fedora 21 userspace will work just fine if you have an appropriate kernel.

Right now I am running raspbian (latest image) with 3.18 kernel on my rpi2.

So where would I locate an appropriate kernel? I read about the fedora-arm-installer and it states that you specify a 'u-boot' and gives options like bananapi etc, will I also require RPI2 u-boot files? I've gone with the Raspbian release (it smells horrible like Debian). I can't wait to get this little puppy running RHEL.

Michael Apologies Peter - I thought I replied to the list!

As Peter said, never RHEL, but... I have Redsleeve 6 (Centos 6 for arm port) running on Cubieboard 2 & 3 by using the F19 remix kernel. You can see how I did this at:

Centos 7 is more likely. There is a mailing list for Centos-arm development. At some point there will be some builds.
