A Debian port is now available for OpenRISC.

Glibc and other components were ported to OpenRISC by Christian Svensson and then he continued to make a Debian port for the open-source CPU architecture.

OpenRISC was developed by the OpenCores community as a general purpose open-source RISC CPU architecture. Those seeking more information on the OpenRISC architecture itself can visit OpenCores.org.
