And that's exactly what I am working to achieve. As I said, the
toolchain to cross-compile for armv6+fpu2 (rpi0/rpi1) works. I have
cross-compiled and tested on rpi0 a pretty large (custom) software
suite which makes heavy usage of floating point stuff. And it works
perfectly. Next step on my agenda is to cross-compile a complete
kernel + bash + essential binaries and libraries for a minimal boot
into single-user mode. If everything goes smooth, I will then speak to
the Devuan gurus to see how we can start a port for the rpi0/rpi1
(which we could call "pi-vuan", e.g. spelling it "pi-v1" :D) and
integrate it within the amprolla architecture, but this will not
happen before Devuan Beta is out.
