FedEX Rpi3 for Raspberry Pi 3 download

FedEX Rpi3 for Raspberry Pi 3 Model B and Model B+ is a "remaster" of the Fedora Project's Fedora 29 build for ARM.

MY CHANGES: The original Fedora 29 system uses the Gnome desktop. Since the Raspberry Pi 3 computer only has 1GB RAM Gnome is way to "heavy" to run smoothly. I have therefore in my remaster FedEX removed most of the Gnome applications and replaced the Gnome desktop environment with LXDE. "LXDE, which stands for Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment, is a desktop environment which is lightweight and fast. It is designed to be user friendly and slim, while keeping the resource usage low. LXDE uses less RAM and less CPU while being a feature rich desktop environment". Furthermore I have "blacklisted" newer kernels than the one installed now, which is 4.18.16-300-fc29. Using newer kernels you won't have a Wifi connection no matter what you do.

WHO SHOULD RUN FedEX Rpi3/Fedora 29 for Raspberry Pi 3?
My answer: The system fits the “advanced” Linux user/enthusiast.
