I managed to get Debian sid to boot and run on this laptop. It even runs 
with hardware-accelerated
video decoding, although this depends a lot on the program, e.g. I can 
watch House MD with mpv without issues, but Firefox refuses to use it at 
the moment.

I also added a guide for this machine on the InstallingDebianOn wiki: 
https://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebianOn/FrameWork/Laptop13/DeepComputing_RISC-V_V1


Thank you @Pierre Gruet for letting me know, that I should probably let 
the RISC-V mailing list know ;)

Best regards,
