Support for Raspberry Pi 5

Open mauromorales opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

I tried running Kairos 2.4.2, but it cannot boot because:

The installed operating system (OS) does not indicate support for Raspberry Pi 5 Update the OS or set os_check=0 in config.txt to skip this check.

I quickly tried copying https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/blob/master/boot/bcm2712-rpi-5-b.dtb into the tumbleweed image but all I got was a blank screen. I assume it is passing the os check but maybe it's missing some drivers or something.

Here's the commit of all added to the firmware https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/commit/83dafbc92c0e63f76ca2ecdd42462d56489d1c77

Another option could be to use the Ubuntu packages, since Ubuntu desktop is working correctly

There is an ongoing effort to try and get RPi5 drivers in the mainline kernel. See: https://github.com/gokrazy/gokrazy/issues/223
