Thanks to some help by davidlt and @neil I was able to get @fedora #CoreOS built for #RISCV. This is definitely one of the first ever CoreOS boots of RISCV:

So #NVIDIA has sold a billion #RISCV CPUs in its products , but it seems that costs have not decreased. I hope someone will compete with them as soon as possible.

Fedora 42 RISC-V Released - Builds For SiFive HiFive Premier P550 & Milk-V Megrez | @phoronix

｢ Fedora 42 on RISC-V also has experimental support for the Banana Pi BPI-F3 and Milk-V Jupiter M1/K1 boards too. Plus Fedora RISC-V can run within QEMU for a virtualized environment ｣

Ubuntu Adds Support For A New Low-Cost RISC-V Board: The OrangePi RV2 8GB For ~$64 | @phoronix

｢ The Orange Pi RV2 is the newest RISC-V board ported by Canonical to run on Ubuntu Linux. The Orange Pi RV2 uses a KY-X1 octa-core SoC that does support RISC-V's vector and RVA22 extensions. Plus there is an AI accelerator albeit rated for just 2 TOPS ｣

A team of researchers from Fudan University in Shanghai developed a 2D chip with 5,931 molybdenum disulfide transistors, making it the most complex 2D logic circuit to date. The chip is built using #RISCV architecture.

Despite the lab-level fabrication capabilities, they achieved a manufacturing yield of 99.77 percent. RV32-WUJI consumes only 0.43 mw of power and is a significant step towards the development of higher-density chips in the future.

Banana Pi BPI-CM6 is a compute module with a SpacemiT K1 RISC-V processor

The Banana Pi BPI-CM6 is a computer-on-a-module that’s the same size and shape as a Raspberry Pi CM4 and even uses the same board-to-board connectors. But while Raspberry Pi’s compute module has an ARM-based processor, the BPI-CM6 is powered by a SpacemiT K1 octa-core RISC-V chip.

Basically it has the same capabilities as the Banana Pi BPI-F3 single-board computer that launched a year ago […]

#Europe Takes Another Whack At Homegrown Compute Engines
Digital Autonomy with #RISCV in Europe, Project "#DARE" is very much focused on #HPC even if it does have potential #AI use cases. Funded by #EuroHPC Joint Undertaking, the same pan-European organization that has funded pre-exascale and #exascale systems. A total of 38 different organizations, have joined up to work collaboratively on three different RISC-V compute engines.

Pine64 StarPro64 single-board PC with a RISC-V processor and 20 TOPS NPU arrives this month

The StarPro64 is a single-board computer with a quad-core RISC-V processor, hardware-accelerated graphics and support for 8K video playback, and an NPU that delivers nearly 20 TOPS of AI performance.

First unveiled last fall, Pine64 now says StarPro64 should be available for purchase before the end of April.

The board measures 133 x 80 x 19mm (5.24″ x 3.15″ x 0.75″) and features a PCIe x4 […]
