Get an appropriate tarball with the root filesystem contents. You'll need the one that is not specific to any device, just a plain .tar.xz file for arm (not armhfp). An archive including Fedora 17 with XFCE is located at http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora-secondary/releases/17/Images/arm/Fedora-17-arm-xfce.tar.xz * Get an SD card of at least 4GB and plug it into your Linux box * Use fdisk to create 3 partitions on the SD card: one to hold the kernel and u-boot scripts (~64MB should be enough), one for swap (~1GB) and one for root filesystem (the rest) * Format the first partition as VFAT, run mkswap on the second partition and format the last one as some sane standard Linux filesystem like ext4 or btrfs * Mount the last partition and extract your downloaded Fedora tarball there: ~~~~~~ cd /path_to_your_mountpoint tar -xJvpf /path_to/Fedora-17-arm-xfce.tar.xz cd ~ umount /path_to_your_mountpoint ~~~~~~Alexey CharkovSat, 20 Oct 2012 17:48:19 -0000https://sourceforge.net9e6939782542db9feef38a17b4348d0884cac7fa
