Hi,
I have discussed this earlier in the arch reddit. I want to have a go at starting a RISC-V port. However, I am out of my depth when it comes to doing something like this for arch. I know there's an arm port, however where does it live? Is there a github repo for the required files?
Is there anyone who knows the details that is eager in helping me bootstrap the effort?
Kind regards,
Paulo Matos

If you want information about how ArchARM was made and is managed, wouldn't it be better to ask them? You may also want to see archlinux32.

Apologies, I thought here I would find more information on how to port arch to other cpus. I don't care specifically about arm. It was just an example that I know exists.

I wasn't suggesting it was inappropriate to ask here - but simply that if you want hints on porting arch to other architectures, who better to ask than people who have done precisely that?

Did just that!

There is a port ongoing for RISC-V of GNU/Parabola, have a look at https://github.com/oaken-source/parabol … -bootstrap.
A GNU approach may be better suited for something as open as RISC-V instead of an Archlinux port which is also open to closed/commercial
software.
