[fedora-arm] Fedora on ROCK 5 Model B

Hello,

I've installed Fedora 40 Rawhide on my Rock 5

Short howto:

What you need:
1) https://github.com/edk2-porting/edk2-rk3588/releases/download/v0.9.1/rock-5b_UEFI_Release_v0.9.1.img
dd this Image on a SD-Card

2) https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/aarch64/iso/Fedora-Everything-netinst-aarch64-Rawhide-20231113.n.0.iso

dd this Image on a USB stick

Put both in your Rock 5B and boot. I've done the Net-install installation with KDE Wayland. The SD-Card with UEFI is needed for booting.

Questions:

1. GPU:

How can I improve GPU Performance ? Mali / Panfrost Driver are available but not loaded /used

root@rockpi5:~# rpm -ql mesa-dri-drivers-23.3.0-1.fc40.aarch64 | grep -i pan
/usr/lib64/dri/panfrost_dri.so
root@rockpi5:~# rpm -ql mesa-dri-drivers-23.3.0-1.fc40.aarch64 | grep -i mali
/usr/lib64/dri/mali-dp_dri.so
root@rockpi5:~#

Creating a custom xorg.conf doesn't make sense while using Wayland ?

2. Boot

Is there any way to boot Fedora direct from NVME instead using rock-5b_UEFI_Release_v0.9.1.img on SD-Card ?

Thanks
Andreas
