I've got two Raspberry Pi units here running FC18 and amateur radio applications. They are working fine. Where did I you get the SD card images from? I downloaded from here: http://scotland.proximity.on.ca/raspberrypi/raspberrypi-fedora-remix/18/images/rpfr-f18-final.zip You will need to unzip the file downloaded and write the image to a 4gb (or larger) class 10 SD card: unzip rpfr-fc18-final.zip sudo dd if=rpfr-18-final.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 As I recall, it took a good while for the image it boot up the first time, a lot longer than some of the other distros, and until starts does you will see a blank screen. I also have found the Fedora distro image is also less tolerant of what SD card it's copied to. I'd start with a good quality 4gb or larger card. An I believe the larger cards take longer to start the first time. Maybe you're not giving it enough time to initialize. More info here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Raspberry_Pi Mike, N0SO
