Hey lads, can SchemeBBS run on a Raspberry Pi?
I am trying to build a patched mit-scheme 9.2 and it throws an error:
checking build system type... armv7l-unknown-linux-gnu
...
checking for native-code support... configure: error: unable to determine native-code type
Does that mean Arm is not supported by Scheme?

Scheme isn't MIT Scheme, so saying
Does that mean Arm is not supported by Scheme?
isn't correct, but since SchemeBBS depends on MIT Scheme, and it says (https://www.gnu.org/software/mit-scheme/documentation/stable/mit-scheme-user/Unix-Installation.html#Unix-Installation)
We will use as an example the installation for GNU/Linux. The installation for other unix systems is similar. There are several references to ARCH below; these refer to the computer architecture that Scheme is compiled for: *either ‘i386’ ‘x86-64’, or ‘svm1’.*
But there's also https://www.gnu.org/software/mit-scheme/documentation/stable/mit-scheme-user/Portable-C-Installation.html#Portable-C-Installation, which "should run with little or no trouble on most modern architectures and operating systems". If it that works for the Pi, you could use that.
