Oh, I saw it, but was in no position at the time to figure out what it
all meant (by doing it).
I meant not fixed in Fedora. I wasn't expecting you to do anything about it.

Fedora-Minimal-armhfp-rawhide-20141019-sda.raw.xz failed to do anything
useful until the uboot on the SD was replaced.
What do you mean by this? That I have to separately do:
dd
if=/run/media/rgm/__/usr/share/uboot/Cubietruck/u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin
of=/dev/sdb
bs=1024 seek=8; sync
?
And since cubieboard2 is not one of the installation options, but there
is a
/usr/share/uboot/Cubieboard2/u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin
That all I need to do is dd this .bin and I can test on my C2?
Who knows. I just reported my personal experience with a specific build which should be
interesting for the Fedora guys.
