Phoronix: Debian Developers Make Progress With RISC-V Port

Debian developers continue making progress with a -- currently unofficial -- port of their Linux operating system to RISC-V...

There needs to be a single-board computer like Raspberry Pi but with RISC-V instead of ARM.

the beauty of build-from-source systems like T2, is that adding a few descriptive lines and just let the scripts rebuild everything is all you need for a new port: https://t2-project.org/architectures/

All is left is adding patches to individual packages to fix something build.

There is a 32bit RISC-V dev board, called the HiFiive1, but the Debian port is for the RV64 and RV128 archs... you will have to work in simula or on FPGA boards for awhile still...

That board is a rather beefy microcontroller, but there is no way in hell that you could run Linux in its 16KiB of RAM.

RISC-V is getting support from Debian? :O
