Getting Linux Distros to New Architectures - Bernhard Rosenkränzer, Baylibre
Description:
Explore the challenges and solutions for porting Linux distributions to new processor architectures in this 30-minute conference talk. Learn about the automated process developed for OpenMandriva's RISC-V port, which can be applied to other emerging architectures like aarch64, Loongarch, and Elbrus. Discover the common pitfalls encountered during porting and the open-source tools used to overcome them. Gain insights into streamlining the adaptation of binary package-based distributions to new hardware platforms, making the process more efficient and accessible for future architectural transitions.
