[RISC V] OpenBSD/riscv64 vs devterm R1 kit
Hello @misc world, I couldn't find any mailing list for the OpenBSD RISC V port, so I'm posting here. If there is a better place, please give directions. Also feel free to forward to anyone who may be interested or of help. Does anyone have experience with the RISC-V devterm kit? Apparently it's quite easy to assemble. Drawbacks: * Slowish CPU * CPU design not really open * Apparently a bit awkward to use Could it run OpenBSD/riscv64, or is only the HiFive board supported? https://www.clockworkpi.com/product-page/devterm-kit-r01 I would volunteer to buy one or two for OpenBSD devs, but I don't know if they could be used for serious development work. Many Thanks in advance, Alexander -- Diese Nachricht wurde von meinem Android-Gerät mit K-9 Mail gesendet.

It currently does not work with OpenBSD. It uses the Allwinner D1, which has DMA issues. Another thing that would need to be worked out is the panel output support. I was going to try and take a whack at these issues but I probably won't have time. > > https://www.clockworkpi.com/product-page/devterm-kit-r01 > > I would volunteer to buy one or two for OpenBSD devs, but I don't know if > they could be used for serious development work. > > Many Thanks in advance, > > Alexander > -- > Diese Nachricht wurde von meinem Android-Gerät mit K-9 Mail gesendet. >
