Running Fedora 29's aarch64 arm distribution under QEMU
Installation of the 64 bit edition of Fedora on ARM requires a UEFI boot. Use the following script to install:
#!/bin/bash
virt-install \
--name Fedora-minimal-aarch64-29 \
--ram 2048 \
--arch aarch64 \
--import \
--os-variant fedora29 \
--disk /home/data/qemu/images/Fedora-Minimal-29-1.2.aarch64.raw \
--boot uefi
After starting, there's a lot of waiting until the initial Fedora text mode config screen rolls up. After configuring and continuing it's pretty much smooth sailing.
