Is Raspberry Pi aarch64 or arm64?
Today, Raspberry Pi announced the launch of a new 64-bit version of their operating system, which is now named “Raspberry Pi OS” rather than “Raspbian”. Currently, piwheels does not support the 64-bit image, as we do not currently build or host aarch64 wheels.
Is Arch Linux good for Raspberry Pi?
Installing Arch Linux on a Raspberry Pi 4. Arch Linux doesn’t support ARM architecture (used by devices like Raspberry Pi) officially. But there is a separate project called Arch Linux ARM that ports Arch Linux to ARM devices. It is available in both 32-bit & 64-bit format.

Can I install Arch Linux on Raspberry Pi?
You can run a number of different operating systems on Raspberry Pi including various Linux distributions such as Raspbian , Windows 10 IoT, and FreeBSD. Installing Arch Linux is as simple as creating two partitions and copying the OS files to the SD card.
Can a Raspberry Pi 4 run Arch Linux?
Using 64-bit (‘aarch64’) Arch Linux ARM on a Raspberry Pi 4 with 8 GB of RAM presents several challenges related to headless (no HDMI) boot, USB support, and a wireless network adapter that sometimes fails to initiate. This short guide can help in overcoming these challenges, while also providing more background information.
Is there a 64 bit version of Arch Linux?
This can result in several problems which were found in Arch Linux ARM running in 64-bit mode (‘aarch64’). A possible workaround for these problems is installing the better supported 32-bit version (‘armv7h’) of Arch Linux ARM.
Is there a Linux kernel for Raspberry Pi 4?
This issue is identified in the Arch Linux ARM forum. This can be fixed by not using the generic mainstream kernel, but a Pi 4 specific kernel based on the kernel provided by the Raspberry Pi Foundation. Arch Linux ARM has this kernel available, but it is not installed by default.
How does UART work on Raspberry Pi 4?
Over a serial connection using the Pi’s GPIO connector, which exposes an UART device using 0-3.3 volts levels. While this connection method is slow, it can be used to diagnose early boot issues. Be aware that enabling the Pi’s UART port locks the GPU at a speed of 250 MHz.
