Porting on Atmega

Hi, I’ m going straight to the point, i have a few question: is it possible right now to run RIOT OS on an Arduino UNO? if no, is someone planning to port RIOT OS for an Atmega328? Thanks for the attention. Greetings, Alessio.

At the moment no 8 bit microcontroller is supported. I think porting RIOT to any 8 bit mcu could be a bigger task.

Hi Alessio!

For now, there is no port of RIOT for the Atmega328 and Arduino UNO, but it is on the task list for the near future. It would be very great, if you (or someone else) might be interested in contributing to this task.

I think this could be a very helpful, but also challenging job as there is currently no 8 bit MCU supported by RIOT and the available RAM on this platform seems to be very limited.

For your information, the Arduino Due is one of the platforms we are also considering to port RIOT to soon, and it should be a much easier job :wink:
