It Seems Pop OS Linux Will Soon be Available on Raspberry Pi and Other ARM Devices
|
||
======
|
||
|
||
There was a time when only lightweight [operating systems were available for ARM devices like Ra][1]spberry Pi. Why? Because earlier ARM devices had low end hardware with limited RAM and CPU.
|
||
|
||
It all changed when Raspberry Pi 4 targeted desktop users with its 8 GB variant and doubled down on it with the introduction of Raspberry Pi 400.
|
||
|
||
This resulted in bringing the support of mainstream desktop Linux distributions to Raspberry Pi. Thanks to that, you can now [install Ubuntu desktop on Raspberry Pi][2].
|
||
|
||
Since Ubuntu desktop now supports ARM devices, other Ubuntu-based distros should join the ARM bandwagon soon. And it seems Pop!_OS is ready to board it.
|
||
|
||
### Pop OS coming soon on Raspberry Pi!
|
||
|
||
System76’s Principal Engineer and maintainer of Pop!_OS, Jeremy Soller shared a teaser photo on Twitter recently. The image is basically a screenshot of Neofetch running in terminal.

If you look closely, you can see that some details that indicate that it is running on a Raspberry Pi device.

|

The host name indicates Raspberry Pi and so does the BCM2835 CPU (chip used on Raspberry Pi devices). You can also notice the aarch64 in the OS name.
|
||
|
||
In addition to that, Jeremy also shared a repository link that contains Pop OS packages for ARM devices. Here’s the [link][6].

||
### How soon?
|
||
|
||
There is no other information available from Systm76 on this front. But if I have to make a guess, I would say that the upcoming Pop!_OS 21.10 version will have an ARM version for Raspberry Pi like devices.
|
||
|
||
This is not a blind guess. The ARM repository link shared by Jeremy clearly mentions ‘impish’ in its directory structure. Impish Indri is the codename for the upcoming [Ubuntu 21.10 slated for release][8] on 14th October.
|
||
|
||
Pop!_OS 21.10 follows the release of Ubuntu 21.10 and should be released soon afterwards. All this gives us enough clue to surmise that Pop!_OS is coming to Raspberry Pi devices this month.
|
||
|
||
This is indeed a good thing because Pop!_OS is popular among developers. This could mean more developers using Raspberry Pi as their development environment.
|
||
|
||
I am delighted to see this development. How about you?
