'''January/February 2018'''  The third and hopefully final bootstrap of Fedora 27 has started.  Please follow progress or try building it yourself via [https://github.com/rwmjones/fedora-riscv-bootstrap this git repository].  Expected timelines are: 1-2 weeks until stage 3 disk images are available, 1-2 months until stage 4 pristine RPM-built disk images are available, 2 months until we are autobuilding regular Fedora packages, 3-6 months until we have koji-shadow functionality.

Revision as of 14:53, 6 February 2025

RISC-V (pronounced "RISC Five") is an open source instruction set architecture (ISA). This project, informally called Fedora/RISC-V, aims to provide a complete Fedora experience on the RISC-V (64 bit, RV64GC) architecture.

Topics

  • Installing - How to download, install and run Fedora/RISC-V.

Get in touch

Most of the people working on the effort hang out in Fedora RISC-V Matrix room. Come say hello :)

Follow (and post to!) #risc-v-sig on Fedora Discussion! (If you prefer, you can follow this tag by email.)

News

Jan 2025 Fedora 41 images are now available.

Outdated information

Over time, we have accumulated lots of information on this wiki. A large chunk of it, while useful at the time, is not really relevant to anyone looking to run Fedora on RISC-V today, or contribute to the porting effort. To avoid any confusion, all outdated material has been moved to the Archive.
