Build system is generic and allow building v5/v6/v7. But the actual
public sources have support for v5 only, to be precise its Armv5 pb926.

You cannot directly run an OS over hypervisor. You need to virtualize
the operating system first.

As mentioned in 1), only v5 support is public.

PB926 should work fine on public sources.
