BeagleV

Well, it's not a Beaglebone, Not really a Beagleboard. But beagleboard.org was involved in creating it

With the concerns about Nvidia owning ARM, this RiscV gives everyone alternatives.

I also noticed this today as well, I've asked if we're going to carry and sell this board, with any accessories. Early discussions on groups about it are whether or not it's as open source as it claims…

It's likely Farnell will be distributing the boards made by Seeed.

I spotted that on twitter today too. Looks interesting. It's still a bit early to tell if it's be useful though.

Probably don't have the experience but it could be fun to work with RISC-V.

150 is a bit out of my budget right now since I don't have any project ideas, I might pick up one of those pine64 riscv boards, play around with it then get a beagleV.

Any board I hand out wouldn't cost the recipient anything, if that needed to be stated.

Of course, but I probably wouldn't be able to use it to it's full extent as I don't have much experience with RISC-V.

I have worked at adding support for SATA boot for HummingBoard Pro in u-boot, I have knowledge about Linux kernel. I am interested in early developer version of BeagleV.

I don't think a lot of people do at this point, it's kinda new

I'd be interesting in getting a board and seeing what it can and cannot do. I've used a number of embedded devices and SBCs, boot loaders, Linux, device driver mods, networking, etc. I am interested in RISC-V and recently get one micro-controller RISC-v boards from Seeed. I hope this board makes it to market and gets some traction and a reasonable group of developers provided support before the end of the year.

Current word on this is that it's very much delayed while the beagleboard range are being sorted out - the current microchip shortage isn't helping at all.

There're people who've managed to get an early version of the BeagleV and they were from the first batch run of the board.

Thanks for the info. It’s a shame but not surprising.

I Have my pine64 pinecil soldering iron running a RiscV. I’ll have to settle for that.
