Beefy Miracle Is Now Lean Enough For ARM Release

Posted by Michael Larabel on June 20, 2012

The general availability release of Fedora 17 "Beefy Miracle" for ARM hardware is now available.

Fedora 17 was release last month for x86/x86_64 but the ARM version wasn't ready at the time. However, that changed yesterday with some spins of Fedora 17 for ARM.

The Fedora ARM camp has put out pre-built ARM images for the Versatile Express (QEMU), the Tegra-2 TrimSlice, BeagleBoard xM, PandaBoard, Kirkwood Plugs, Highbang, and Freescale iMX platforms.

Additional information is available from the Fedora 17 ARM GA release announcement and the Fedora Project Wiki.
