Hi,

there is a problem with post install first boot process on some boards. For example on board pcDuino3 Nano and based on [1] probably on Cubieboard too.

After installing latest Fedora 25 nightly image(*.sda.raw.xz) on sd card using fedora-arm-image-installer, system "hangs" during last boot phase when it runs initial-setup service.

What really happens is that on attached monitor, there is nothing indicating what is happening and no login prompt, because initial-setup is actually running, but it is not attached to tty1. With serial-usb cable from other computer, I've verified that it is in fact running on ttyS0 console.

I'm not sure what is proper solution and what is the problem exactly. I've file a bug [2] and discussed this with initial-setup maintainer(CCed), yet did not come up with good solution. initial-setup can be forced to run on tty1, but it's probably not the correct solution, because I guess that boards with no GPU won't have tty1, right? initial-setup.service uses tty which as systemd default is set to /dev/console. Seems that /dev/console is set to ttyS0, which is probably beneficial for debugging purposes, but causes this invisible initial-setup.

Cheers
Michal Hlavinka
