Been studying RISC-V for... I think a year now. Bought the booklet outlining the ISA's modules, and have been working down from there.

I have seen various startups and actual products, as well as a bunch of simulators, but I haven't really seen any projects trying to design a RISC-V CPU from the ground up.

Are there any groups doing this? I don't think I'm at a point where I could meaningfully contribute, I'm mostly interested for educating myself.

I'm asking this because I'm very new to the Yocto project. I'm going through the documentation but it's a bit overwhelming to me, looking at what Fishwaldo has achieved (link embedded in the title). I would like to learn how he did it and how I could create my own image based on a supported kernel with necessary drivers and boot the Star64 board.

From what I understand, he:

  1. Forked the kernel tree and created his own branch.
  2. Put in the necessary drivers (including OEM drivers) - I'm not really sure how he did it since I'm new to Linux (any tips would be appreciated!).
  3. I can't quite make out the layers he used to build the minimal image (I will study the guide more to figure this out).
  4. Finally, he compiled it, alongside compiling U-boot, partitioned the SD-card and booted the device.

Am I right? I'm missing a lot of steps in the middle, would really appreciate any help in understanding this. Thanks!

So I have a uconsole r01 that has a riscv chip (I think) and I want to look into alternative operating systems

What operating systems support the architecture and have low hardware requirements?

So I got a uconsole with RISC v and was wondering what I can do with it. Specs are very weak and I would like some advice for RISC v applications and stuff

To be specific my hardware is a usonsole r01

Any riscv browsers avalible?
