I will demonstrate FPGA-based 64-bit RISC-V computer, capable of booting and running the riscv64 port of Fedora. Using Free/Libre packages available as part of the Fedora repositories, this machine is capable of recompiling not only its own software (e.g., kernel, glibc, gcc), but also its own gateware (i.e., FPGA bitstream), completely from source code, all the way down to (but not including) the physical (FPGA) silicon.
