Linux Void March 2024 Release with Raspberry Pi 5 support

 


The Void project produces an independent, rolling release Linux distribution. The project's latest snapshot provides a keyboard layout selector on the login screen, enables the chrony network time daemon, and supports Raspberry Pi 5 computers.

Some highlights of this release:

  • A keymap selector is now shown in LightDM on XFCE images (@classabbyamp in #354)
  • The chrony NTP daemon is now enabled by default in live images (@classabbyamp in abbd636)
  • Raspberry Pi images can now be installed on non-SD card storage without manual configuration on models that support booting from USB or NVMe (@classabbyamp in #361)
  • Raspberry Pi images now default to a /boot partition of 256MiB instead of 64MiB (@classabbyamp in #368)

rpi-aarch64* PLATFORMFSes and images now support the Raspberry Pi 5. After installation, the kernel can be switched to the Raspberry Pi 5-specific rpi5-kernel.
