I've also got a SD card board and some headers I need to solder on to use with it.=20 I've got a RISCV baremetal operating system I might bring up on this device but looking at the datasheet for the RISCV processor used, it's only got machine mode and user mode, no supervisor mode and no paging. It does not even support any of the Sv pagetables so that's a challenge.=20 Most interestingly enough, you can actually boot up with one RISCV core and one ARM core, two RISCV cores or both ARM cores. Mixed processor cores that'll be fun to see what we can do with that.=20 --=20 Tactical Nuclear Kittens
