Ok but does any of that work in practice? Can I write a random distro ISO to an SD card and expect it to work on any RISC-V board that has the same pointer size

I just checked the Ubuntu RISC-V download page and it has 2 different ISOs for 2 boards from the same vendor! And apparently those are the only 2 boards with ISOs available 0_o

Yes, you will be able to, at some point. >I just checked the Ubuntu RISC-V download page and it has 2 different ISOs for 2 boards from the same vendor! No board out there is RVA22 compliant, as RVA22 itself isn't done and closed. It is expected to be this spring. By the time large scale production of boards happen and they ship to the masses, this will be a solved problem. I do not expect this to happen this year. Maybe the next it'll start to pick up.
