Status of ARM Development

[J. C. Jones]

Hi All,

Newbie here (2 days). I would like to know the who-is-doing-what for the ARM
port. It seems that, with the current lock-down of all three major mobile
platforms (iOS/Android/Windows Phone 8), as well as the impending surge in
2013 of ultra-cheap mobile devices like tablets based on ARM, and of course,
the loveable Raspberry Pi, a truly open Windows-oriented platform is more
needed than ever.

If you want to help, go ahead. If you are just asking, the answer is:
"There is no work on ARM port going on because there are no human resources
for doing that". Well, at least afaik.

I actually did get a simple port of freeloader and reactos working on my iPod touch a while ago. :P

I would like to consolidate any work/ideas regarding porting to ARM. Over the last three years, there have been several developers with the same vision. I makes sense for each of us to communicate our discoveries.

If anyone (besides you RMS – thanks) is working on, has worked on, or will be working on porting to ARM, I would like to know. Send me an email.

Hi RMS,

What happen to your port?

The ARM port has been hibernating for some time now, but now when Android and Raspberry Pi made ARM popular I think it would be great to wake it.

I think ReactOS would be an excellent choice of OS in modest hardware computers like Raspberry Pi, it runs really well on low memory devices both taking RAM and storage in account plus it runs pretty well on slow CPUs too.

Raspberry Pi also would be a good hardware for developers to use cause it is really cheap and opens up for all developers to run same hardeware.

I wish you the best in your effort to wake the port up!
Yours sincerely,
Jan
