Hi folks,

If you're thinking about taking the F17 alpha1 rootfs for a test drive this message is for you.

A few weeks ago Peter added a section to the Fedora ARM page that detailed important packages that were failing to build. Today the majority of those build failures marked as "FIXED" so this has been working quite well. So well, infact, that Peter was able to make a root filesystem exclusively using Fedora 17 packages, a major milestone.

The next thing to be addressed are runtime failures that people are running into as they try out the alpha1 rootfs. If IRC and the mailing list are any indication, we've all hit a few issues with F17 ARM alpha, though generally after a couple changes it's been working *really* well for me. Peter and I talked about it and the logical conclusion was to add a runtime issue section to the problem page, which I've done.

Thus, if you're trying out the F17 ARM alpha 1 and run into any trouble, please visit:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Fedora17_rawhide

If you don't see your problem, please add it to the list. If you do see your problem and know the solution, please make sure the solution is in the list. We'll do our best to keep the list current and get the status of every item to "FIXED"

And while you're there, if you happen to see a broken package you'd like to work on, please do! Thanks everybody.
