== Fedora Secondary Architecture Architectures ==

ARM chips are the most popular CPU produced -- approximately in excess of 5 billion are being made each year. These are being sold under a number of different brand names (ARM, StrongARM, Armada, Cortex, OMAP, Sheeva, Snapdragon, XScale) by a number of different manufacturers. Most of these are going into cellphones, but hundreds of millions are being used in other devices such as routers, NAS boxes, embedded controllers, tablets, and netbooks.

Here at Seneca we're is supporting the Fedora ARM initiative by creating hosting and managing a [[:fedora:Koji |Koji]] build farm that shadows the primary architectures, so that every package built for the primary architectures (including updates) will is be built for ARM.

The [[Fedora ARM Koji Buildsystem]] is accessible through a [http://arm.koji.fedoraproject.org web interface] and through the koji command-line tools provided as part of Fedora ARM Koji system] is currently online. Anyone with a Fedora account is welcome to build packages on it; if you do not already have an account wish to make use of the build system you can sign up using the [https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/ Fedora Account System (fas2)].

The [http://arm.koji.fedoraproject.org Fedora ARM Koji system] is up and running; it is currently * Currently building F13 under the supervision of [[User:Paul.W|Paul Whalen]] and [[User:Chris Tyler|Chris Tyler]]. We have 22 hardware ARM builders at present (see * See the [[Fedora ARM Secondary Architecture/ARM hardware|ARM Hardware]]) which include 20 GuruPlug Server Plus, 1 BeagleBoard XM and an OpenRD Client. We are in page for details of the progress of building Fedora 13 and have just under 9000 packages builtbuild farm hardware.<!--
