Pay attention to the installation instructions if using Tow-boot - you may need the final step which is to copy a different grub version into /boot/efi.

Thank you for the reply.

What install instructions are you using?

I was planning to install U-Boot to the SPI flash per the blog post: https://nullr0ute.com/2021/05/fedora-on-the-pinebook-pro/

Why are people so excited about Tow-Boot...GRUB2 support?

I can see why one would use an NVMe SS drive verses eMMC with Fedora Workstation for ARM64.

How did you get the brcmfmac Wifi driver working?  I installed the one linked in the blog post, but no success.

What he said, or use dmesg to see what firmware file is failing to load and just copy that one form either manjaro or another source to the location in the error message, them either rmmod/modprobe or reboot.
I never tried fedora from emmc, it was way too slow on sd though but fairly smooth on nvme.

Tried this. No change.  Wifi still not working.  Oddly, bluetooth is working.

Neither dmesg nor journalctl have anything about brcmfmac43456.  I feel like there should be a kernel module of wl, but don't even see that failing to load.

I was hoping to have Wifi working, before installing to the eMMC.

so if you do lsmod do you see brcrmfmac loaded? I was actually misrembering , the only firmware I needed to find was BCM4345CS.hcd for the bluetooth support.
