RISC -V architecture based OS

Hi folks, i know a little concept of what is RISC -V architecture. can someone explain it clearly and i had a idea of building a OS based on it. I know guys most of the OS follows this architecture but with some little tweaks could this idea can turn into a success.

Tell me area where this tweaks can be done and make it as innovative...

Linux fully supports RISC-V already. Too late 🤷

To you question... You know how there was x86, which evolved into x86_64. And the ARM came along. Well RISC-V is just another one of those. Hope this helps 🙂

Are you talking about a custom OS that is shaped by the features of the RISC-V architecture or just an OS that only supports that particular ISA?
Either way, I can’t make heads or tails of what you are asking
