Orange Pi RV2 riscv64 support

[Kriston]

I'm looking for Orange Pi RV2 RISC-V support.  This board is gaining popularity due to the Orange Pi manufacturer's good reputation with Arm.

 

I have successfully built both Orange Pi and Raspberry Pi aarch64 builds on Debian from source so I'd like to know how to build Armbian for Orange Pi RV2 riscv64.

 

What would I need to modify in the build process?

 

Thanks!!

Lowest price is what makes it popular. But software is the biggest key of the package and there they are among the worst.

On this SoC, we will be cooperating with SoC maker's board directly - working with Orangepi is too damaging for us:

This will probably be done in a couple of weeks, so you can follow that and adjust accordingly.

I have an Orange PI 5 Plus, and both USB-C connectors (including the one used for power delivery) are faulty. Also the second HDMI output is corrupted. Clearly their manufacturer leaves a lot to be desired.
