I have a couple SATA drives I would like to test booting from.  Is
there anything special I need to do, or can I 'just' attach with a

Once I figure out the right power connector, I will be using some IDE
drives on an IDE/SATA adapter as well.
really the best way to install to sata is to put u-boot on a sdcard and
  boot the machine. you should have dhcp setup and configure pxe
  booting. then just do an install using anaconda.

OK.  all new to me.

Are you talking about the interactive network installation presented at:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Rawhide/Installation#Interactive_Network_Installation

??

Or something more specialized?

I can put the Cubieboard2 upboot on with:

dd if=/root/u-boot-sunxi/u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin of=/dev/sdb bs=1024 seek=8; sync

I have dhcp on my network, do I have to do anything on the SDcard to support it?

For the anaconda install. No video on the Cubieboard, I only have serial console and ssh.

And PXE booting. Are you saying that I am not installing to the drive, but booting all the time from the network?

Confused here...  :)
