Hi,

I think we need ARM support for http://software.opensuse.org At least for couple best-supported boards.

I think it have been already requested some times ago.

I agree, but this introduces a couple of issues: 1) which boards? Do we have a definitive list of platforms supported by the single multi-platform kernel?

2) how to implement it? If we don't use just the multi-platform kernel powered device, things get tricky. Or are you just talking about having armv7l and aarch64 show up in the package search?

Unfortunately ARMv7 isn't the friendliest of platforms, this should hopefully be resolved with ARMv8. I'm hoping there will be some announcements in the not so distant future with regards to platforms (I have no insight here, just hoping considering the already public announcements by vendors).

I think we should be able to provide a single image for ARMv8 as it is done for x86 (using EFI?). For armv7, we have one image per board. So, maybe just add a link to Portal:ARM wiki page?
