I've always though TempleOS would be perfect for open hardware, like the Raspberry Pi. Would you ever consider porting it to ARMv7/8?

- cmdrfred 12y agoThis is a great idea. I'd play with it on the Pi.
- TerryADavis 12y agoIt would be a lot of work, but it's possible. I made it wed to x86_64.
- thearn4 12y agoThat is an interesting idea. But even more so, I would certainly pay for a full MOOC on low-level OS development from scratch derived from it. Terry seems to have a rare and very useful skillset.
- userbinator 12y agoThe RPi is most certainly not "open hardware", it's even more closed than a standard PC. On the other hand, there are plenty of truly open ARM platforms out there, like the OLinuXino series: https://www.olimex.com/Products/OLinuXino/open-source-hardware https://www.olimex.com/Products/OLinuXino/open-source-hardwa... That said, TempleOS on anything but standard PC hardware would be interesting to see.
- wolfgke 12y agoI doubt whether OLinuXino's GPU is as open as RPi's VideoCore IV (among the GPUs used on ARM boards VideoCore IV (used on RPi) is the most open one - unluckily this is no praise for RPi :-( ), but convince me that I'm wrong.
