What's the status of Raspberry Pi support?

Question

Will 12.10's arm edition support raspberry pi? I just bought one and would prefer running Ubuntu over Fedora.

I guess it is too early to post a solution for Ubuntu 12.10 – atenz Jul 15 '12 at 04:19 — atenz, Jul 15 '12 at 04:19

I think you will have more luck with Raspbian distribution. It is debian based and geared specifically for the Raspberry Pi.

Ubuntu dropped support for that style of ARM architecture a few years ago (9.10).

While this is great for supporting newer hardware it means that Ubuntu does not run on hardware like the Raspberry Pi and likely never will:
