SUSE Provides U-Boot Support For The Raspberry Pi 5

Written by Michael Larabel in Raspberry Pi on 4 November 2025 at 05:56 AM EST. 7 Comments
SUSE's hardware enablement team has worked through proper U-Boot support for the Raspberry Pi 5 single board computer.

The official Raspberry Pi OS images for the Raspberry Pi 5 does not use any bootloader at all while SUSE engineers worked out U-Boot support to enhance the boot support for this popular ARM64 SBC. There will also be USB boot support with this U-Boot code too once the PCI Express support is settled.
