Raspberry Pi, a miniature computer with an estimate cost of just $25 (€18.5) that is capable of running a Linux distro or RISC OS, has just received a version of the Fedora OS.

Dubbed Raspberry Pi Fedora Remix, the distribution produced by Seneca Centre for Development of Open Technology which hosts the Fedora ARM build system, is now available for everyone to test.

According to the developers, The Raspberry Pi Fedora Remix is a distribution that contains software packages from the Fedora project (specifically, the Fedora ARM secondary architecture project), packages which have been specifically written or modified for the Raspberry Pi, and proprietary software provided by the Raspberry Pi Foundation for device access.

The current version available for download is Raspberry Pi Fedora Remix 14, but version 17 is already on its way.
