it depends how you define "Single Board Computer", the term is kind of
blurry today.
The "normal" gforth needs a POSIX compliant OS running on the board,
like Linux.
I use gforth on the GNUBlin Board http://gnublin.embedded-projects.net,
the Intel Galileo
https://www.arduino.cc/en/ArduinoCertified/IntelGalileo and the
Raspberry Pi https://www.raspberrypi.org. These might be seen as SBC.
And then there is Gforth-ec, the embedded version of gforth, which
supports many processor types and can run on bare hardware (without an
OS). To use gforth-ec, you usually need to write some kind of
initialization code for your board.
Best regards
