*Sugar IRC-10 in RPi "B" 512 on rpfr-f18-rc1 (arm) and rpfr-17-xfce-r2 use IP6 ...all my other devices use IP4

...

In general newer versions of Fedora will try and autodiscover IPv6 networks.

If it finds one with a non-local (not fe80::) IP address it will get on it, and used the IPv6 routers spotted if present

Given a DNS name with both IPv4 & v6 addresses set, it's mostly up to the application to see if asks the OS to do v4, v6,

or just generically whichever the OS thinks makes the most sense

*'''RECOMMENDED'''

*http://scotland.proximity.on.ca/raspberrypi/test-releases/rpfr17/

Changes in this release:

- Image resize/swap space creation is now more reliable (note, however,

that it will take several minutes after the firstboot setup before the

resize/swap takes effect - the system may be used during this time). I

think we've probably nailed the last of the significant

firstboot/resize/swap issues.

- The image is now 1.852G in size and will fit a 2GB card (4GB or larger

card is recommended to allow plenty of space for data/extra

software/swap). The download is 665MB.

Next week we'll start performance tests with armv6 rebuilds (sfp & hfp)

and continue work on image size reduction and boot cutdown.

+ In general newer versions of Fedora will try and autodiscover IPv6 networks.
+ If it finds one with a non-local (not fe80::) IP address it will get on it, and used the IPv6 routers spotted if present
+ Given a DNS name with both IPv4 & v6 addresses set, it's mostly up to the application to see if asks the OS to do v4, v6,
+ or just generically whichever the OS thinks makes the most sense

+*'''RECOMMENDED'''
+*http://scotland.proximity.on.ca/raspberrypi/test-releases/rpfr17/
+ Changes in this release:
+ - Image resize/swap space creation is now more reliable (note, however,
+ that it will take several minutes after the firstboot setup before the
+ resize/swap takes effect - the system may be used during this time). I
+ think we've probably nailed the last of the significant
+ firstboot/resize/swap issues.
+ - The image is now 1.852G in size and will fit a 2GB card (4GB or larger
+ card is recommended to allow plenty of space for data/extra
+ software/swap). The download is 665MB.
+ Next week we'll start performance tests with armv6 rebuilds (sfp & hfp)
+ and continue work on image size reduction and boot cutdown.
