# AltArch SIG

The purpose of this SIG is to maintain support for alternate (non-mainstream) architectures like x86_32, RISC-V, Raspberry Pi and other SBCs. This SIG will work in close collaboration with the Core SIG to ensure all builds remain synchronized with the AlmaLinux OS 10 releases and maintains compatibility with RHEL ecosystem standards.

# How to Join

Joining is easy! You can show up to a meeting, pick up an issue from the list by assigning it to yourself, or ask questions in chat! Not every contributor wants to be a part of the SIG, but if you do, joining is simple.

Where we chat

The AltArch SIG uses AltArch (opens new window) chat channel for communication.

Where and when we meet

Meetings will be held bi-weekly, with timing adjusted to accommodate members across different time zones. We also work asynchronously in Mattermost to accomplish our goals between meetings.

# Activities, projects, and deliverables

  • Maintain synchronization with AlmaLinux 10 minor releases
  • Security patch backporting and testing
  • Community support for platforms like x86_32 and Raspberry Pi
  • Maintain selected packages from the EPEL 10 repository for alternate archs

# Arm-based Single board computers

Currently, the following single board computers are supported:

If there is a board you would like support for, please join the chat and let us know. We will consider trying to support it, taking into account the board’s lifecycle and popularity.
