I am attempting an install of Fedora-Server-armhfp-26-20170327.n.0-sda.raw.xz
Not too successful right now, as the 4Gb mSD cards I have with me are only 3.9Gb, not the 4Gb needed. So this project is on hold until I get home Sunday. However,,,,
I looked at the drive with fdisk to see why it was so large, and got:
Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type /dev/sdb1 2048 61439 59392 29M c W95 FAT32 (LBA) /dev/sdb2 * 61440 1060863 999424 488M 83 Linux /dev/sdb3 1060864 2060287 999424 488M 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/sdb4 2060288 7919615 5859328 2.8G 82 Linux swap / Solaris
What is partition 1 all about?
thanks

Support for Raspberry Pi, can be ignored otherwise, has been there since F-25 beta.

OK. More RPi cruft. They just HAVE to be different. :)
If that 32Mb is what is pushing this to not fit on the 4Gb mSD cards I have with me this trip, I am going to be mildly upset. Not that I don't have plenty of other work to do, I just wanted a Fedora server image for some testing. It can wait a couple days.

No idea, the F-25 image which had it fitted onto the 4Gb cards that I have (I'm travelling, don't have cards that small with me) but then there is some variance with cards and storage actually available.
