Re: Trying to build pil64 on Raspberry Pi

Hi Jon,

Pi is 32 bit.  64 bit picolisp doesn't work there.  You could try
ersatz.  32 bit picolisp works, you just need to fix makefile manually
yourself.  If you search this mailing list, you'll find out how to
achieve this.

Cheers,

Tomas

Hi Jon,

The RPi zero has armv6 architecture, which is 32-bit - so there's no way to
run the 64-bit PicoLisp.

Here's a patch and instructions to compile the 32-bit picolisp on ARM:

Hi AW,

Thanks for the patch info! I’ll try it.
