MACCHIATObin boot on serial port

 March 6, 2023

I bought a MACCHIATObin Single Shot a few months ago with the idea of creating a NAS out of it. The results have been very good and, to begin in an easy way, I decided to install Fedora 37 Server Edition.

Now that I’ve decided exactly what I want out of it, I reinstalled Fedora and started from scratch with exactly what I wanted. I decided to install Fedora 37 IoT, which is an rpm-ostree based release. To create the installation media, I leveraged arm-image-installer. Overall everything went well, and the system booted successfully, although I wasn’t sure at first due to an issue with my DHCP server configuration. Therefore I decided to connect to the board serial port and see if the boot was successful.
