Trying This is a first attempt at a basic Fedora ARM Image Installer ( Downloader / Creator / Updater ). All one has to do is first select a source image file or download option (click the refresh button first). Then select the destination (target) device drive to write to. Then just click install!  This script is written in Python (version 2 & 3 compatible) and makes use of the PyQt4 GUI module allowing it to run graphically (both Linux & Windows). The files written are block device image files containing: [MBR + Partitions + File Systems + Data]. Distributors should make sure to build something similar package some sort of first-boot setup-script to Fedora's USB customize the root file system as there is no official installerfor ARM devices yet. Hopefully this application will be able to create bootable media for almost any generalized Guruplug , but instead this time we are creating a SD card installation toolRaspberry Pi , Efika , with GUI for both LINUX Pandaboard and WindowsTrimslice. Basically trying Devices that boot off of hard drives may have to create wait a bit as there is a user friendly GUI environment line of code that ignores block devices that allows the user are greater than 32 Gigabytes in size (temporarily trying to install protect users).  Note: The Windows version makes use of a bootable ISO pre-packaged dd.exe binary file to help write to their SD card.device files
