mneptok | Any plans for an official ISO installer for RISC-V? | 17:15 |
mneptok | https://riscv.org/news/2024/06/worlds-first-risc-v-laptop-gets-a-massive-upgrade-and-equips-with-ubuntu/ | 17:16 |
mneptok | Someone could purchase this, but they'd be SOL if they need to easily re-install. | 17:17 |
UnivrslSuprBox | mneptok: Do you have any details on what firmware is on that device? If it doesn't have any type of standard boot method, an installer ISO won't be useful anyway | 17:43 |
mneptok | From my understanding the open architecture of RISC-V may require specialized installers per platform. At least until a reference platform is created. But it seems wise for Canonical to at least provide public ISO images for users of partner hardware that have pre-installation. | 17:46 |
mneptok | Caveat: I'm as useful when discussing RISC-V platform implementation as a whistle on a plow. | 17:46 |
Eickmeyer | My guess is it would most likely be a pre-installed image similar to a Raspberry Pi, but I'm purely speculating here. | 17:51 |
mneptok | Please join me behind the "I'm Not Quite Sure If I'm Making Sense Here" divider. | 17:53 |
liushuyu | https://code.launchpad.net/~liushuyu-011/ubuntu/+source/vectorscan/+git/vectorscan/+merge/467842 minor fix | 19:08 |
liushuyu | Eickmeyer, mneptok: RISC-V devices are similar to RPi devices, where different devices will require a different board configurations (like where can the kernel find the peripherals/what are the valid MMIO address spaces etc). | 19:13 |
liushuyu | Although, there are some efforts of getting UEFI/ACPI standardized in RISC-V ecosystem, but to my knowledge, most implementations are emulated through U-Boot (somewhat similar to the EBBR [Embedded Base Boot Requirements] thing in the ARM world) | 19:13 |

rbasak | I need moderation again for u-d-a@ please | 22:43 |
arraybolt3 | rbasak: oops, disregard my email to you just now, I apparently was too quick in assuming a ballot didn't show up | 22:56 |
rbasak | arraybolt3: no, it was entirely my fault. Thank you for checking! | 23:03 |
rbasak | (now resolved) | 23:04 |
arraybolt3 | Thanks for your help! | 23:04 |
