Debian is among the distributions with most supported CPU architectures and excellent cross-compilation support. We are working on improving its cross-building capabilities and keeping it easily cross-bootstrappable from source for upcoming CPU architectures. Therefore, we'll meet in an upcoming team sprint in Würzburg, Germany. See wiki.debian.org/Sprints/2025/B… .

The Vortex86 SoC series are 32-bit x86-architecture microprocessors that are compatible with Windows, Linux and most popular 32-bit Real Time Operating Systems.
