[Trisquel-users] Trisquel instruction set architecture support: i386, amd64, arm, arm64, risc-v and open power?

Just because there is no image to download does not mean, that packages are not build for other architectures. Maybe there are some efforts underway, but nothing is official yet. That is the reason why I am asking here in this forum. My hope is that I can get an answer from one of the people
