Download Ubuntu for RISC-V Platforms

Ubuntu — now available for multiple RISC-V platforms

Run Ubuntu with your favourite RISC-V boards. Ubuntu recently enabled SiFive Unmatched, StarFive VisionFive, Allwinner Nezha, Sipeed LicheeRV and Microchip Polarfire SoC FPGA Icicle Kit. Download the images for those boards below.

Pick the OS image to match your hardware, flash it onto SD/microSD card, load it onto your board and away you go.
