  • Alpine released with RISC-V initial support at Alpine 3.20 link

  • Alpine developer requires better performance hardware to build (Current build farm using Thead SG2042)

  • Alpine developer requires universal boot image for riscv64

    • Quote from Email: Another thing we are hoping to achieve is to be able to provide a universal boot image for riscv64 hardware. The current platforms require custom out-of-tree kernels and boot setups. So any improvement in this regard would be helpful.

  • aports edge RISC-V status (2024-11-1): aports repo (Detail sheet)

    • two main reason blocking port to riscv

      • upstream not support (require tackle one by one)

      • build time is too long (better server grade hardware?)
