Denne seksjonen gir informasjon som gjelder støttede maskinvarearkitekturer i Fedora.
6.1. RPM multiarch support on 64-bit platforms (x86_64, ppc64)
RPM supports parallel installation of
multiple architectures of the same package. A default package
listing such as rpm -qa might appear to include
duplicate packages, since the architecture is not displayed.
Instead, use the repoquery command, part of the
yum-utils package, which displays architecture
by default. To install yum-utils , run the
following command:
su -c "yum install yum-utils"
For å liste opp alle pakkene sammen med deres arkitektur, ved å bruke rpm, kjør følgende kommando:
rpm -qa --queryformat "%{name}-%{version}-%{release}.%{arch}\n"
You can add this to /etc/rpm/macros (for a
system wide setting) or ~/.rpmmacros (for a
per-user setting). It changes the default query to list the
architecture:
%_query_all_fmt %%{name}-%%{version}-%%{release}.%%{arch}
6.2. Spesifikt for Fedora på PPC
Denne seksjonen inneholder informasjon om Fedora og maskinvareplattformen PPC.
6.2.1. Maskinvarekrav for PPC
6.2.1.1. Prosessor og minne
Minimum CPU: PowerPC G3 / POWER3.
Fedora 9 supports only the "New World" generation of Apple Power Macintosh, shipped from circa 1999 onward.
Fedora 9 also supports IBM pSeries, IBM iSeries, IBM RS/6000, Genesi Pegasos II, and IBM Cell Broadband Engine machines.
Fedora 9 includes new hardware support for Genesi Efika, and for the Sony PlayStation 3.
Anbefalt for tekst-modus: 233 MHz G3 eller bedre, 128MB RAM.
Anbefalt for grafisk-modus: 400 MHz G3 eller bedre, 256MB RAM.
6.2.1.2. Harddiskplass
The disk space requirements listed below represent the disk
space taken up by Fedora 9 after installation is complete.
However, additional disk space is required during installation
to support the installation environment. This additional disk
space corresponds to the size of
/Fedora/base/stage2.img (on Installation
Disc 1) plus the size of the files in
/var/lib/rpm on
the installed system.
In practical terms, additional space requirements may range from as little as 90 MiB for a minimal installation to as much as an additional 175 MiB for an "everything" installation. The complete packages can occupy over 9 GB of disk space.
Additional space is also required for any user data, and at least 5% free space should be maintained for proper system operation.
6.2.2. 4 KiB Pages on 64-bit machines
After a brief experiment with 64KiB pages in Fedora Core 6, the PowerPC64 kernel has now been switched back to 4KiB pages. The installer should reformat any swap partitions automatically during an upgrade.
6.2.3. Apple-tastaturet
The Option key on Apple systems is equivalent to the Alt key on the PC. Where documentation and the installer refer to the Alt key, use the Option key. For some key combinations you may need to use the Option key in conjunction with the Fn key, such as Option+Fn+F3 to switch to virtual terminal tty3.
6.2.4. Installasjonsnotater for PPC
Fedora Installation Disc 1 is bootable on supported hardware. In
addition, a bootable CD image appears in the
images/ directory of
this disc. These images behave differently according to your
system hardware:
On most machines, the bootloader automatically boots the appropriate 32-bit or 64-bit installer from the install disc.
64-bit IBM pSeries (POWER4/POWER5), nåværende iSeries-modeller. After using OpenFirmware to boot the CD, the bootloader,
yaboot, automatically boots the 64-bit installer.IBM "Legacy" iSeries (POWER4). De såkalte «Legacy» iSeries-modellene, som ikke bruker OpenFirmware, krever bruk av et oppstartsavbilde som er plassert i mappen
images/iSeriesi installasjonstreet.32-bit CHRP (IBM RS/6000 og andre). After using OpenFirmware to boot the CD, select the
linux32boot image at theboot:prompt to start the 32-bit installer. Otherwise, the 64-bit installer starts and fails.-
Genesi Pegasos II. At the time of writing, firmware with full support for ISO9660 file systems has not yet been released for the Pegasos. You can use the network boot image, however. At the OpenFirmware prompt, enter the following command:
boot cd: /images/netboot/ppc32.img
You must also manually configure OpenFirmware on the Pegasos to make the installed Fedora system bootable. To do this, set the
boot-deviceandboot-fileenvironment variables appropriately. Genesi Efika 5200B. To run Linux correctly on the Efika, download the "Device Tree Supplement" from http://www.powerdeveloper.org/platforms/efika/devicetree and install according to the documentation therein. At the time of writing, the firmware of the Efika has bugs which prevent correct operation of the
yabootbootloader. Genesi stated that a fixed firmware would be made available by April 2007. As of November 2007, it is not yet available.-
Sony PlayStation 3. For installation on PlayStation 3, first update to firmware 1.60 or later. The "Other OS" boot loader must be installed into the flash, following the instructions at http://www.playstation.com/ps3-openplatform/manual.html. A suitable boot loader image can be found on Sony's "ADDON" CD, available from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/geoff/cell/.
Once the boot loader is installed, the PlayStation 3 should be able to boot from the Fedora install media. Type
linux64 xdriver=fbdevat the boot prompt, which will work around https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=370761. Please note that network installation works best with NFS, since that takes less memory than FTP or HTTP methods. Using thetextoption also reduces the amount of memory taken by the installer.For more information on Fedora and the PlayStation3 or Fedora on PowerPC in general, join the Fedora-PPC mailing list or the
#fedora-ppcchannel on FreeNode. -
Network booting. Combined images containing the installer kernel and ramdisk are located in the
images/netboot/directory of the installation tree. They are intended for network booting with TFTP, but can be used in many ways.The
yabootloader supports TFTP booting for IBM pSeries and Apple Macintosh. The Fedora Project encourages the use ofyabootover thenetbootimages.
6.2.5. PPC Specific Packages
ppc64-utils has been split out into
individual packages reflecting upstream packaging
(ps3pf-utils,
powerpc-utils,
powerpc-utils-papr). The
mkzimage command is no longer supplied, you
can use the wrapper script from kernel-bootwrapper package - eg:
wrapper -i initrd-${KERN_VERSION}.img -o zImage-${KERN_VERSION}.img vmlinuz-${KERN_VERSION}
