 Stas | I want to try building nixos for BE PowerPC G5. Any issues with that cpu arch anyone is aware of? | 10:10:29 |
| Stas | I have a 16GB RAM Power Mac G5, and have a working cross compiled nixos setup for armv7. Thinking of modifying it to try build an install media for G5 | 10:12:20 |
 K900 | @Puna ^ | 10:13:16 |
| Stas | I know I will have problems with browsers and so on later on, but I want to see how much of a desktop it can get. :D | 10:20:31 |
| Stas | Already learned about two ABI versions the arch has, mostly soaking up the knowledge from Gentoo wiki on it | 10:33:03 |
 Grimmauld (any/all) | fwiw servo is pretty okay on exotics if rust supports those platforms, and rust platform support is okayish, after all its part of the linux kernel now | 10:56:46 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | so if you want a browser, try servo | 10:57:03 |
| Stas | Thanks for the tip! It is cool hardware, even the insides look more like IBM than apple made | 11:02:16 |
| Stas | Took Chinese RAM sticks like a champ | 11:03:34 |
 Puna | installer module needs some changes for the ISO to get properly picked up by the system. i can push a WIP PR for that later today. (it's CHRP-ish, with the usual Apple nonesense attached to it) | 11:26:38 |
| Stas | Wow! You actually did it already :D | 11:27:27 |
| Stas | I sometimes interact with PowerVM gear at work, and hope to get one at home once we discontinue AIX. | 11:28:23 |
| Stas | kust the obscurity of it makes it fun | 11:28:34 |
| Stas | * just the obscurity of it makes it fun | 11:28:38 |
| Stas | AFAIK, it needs to blessed with the right flags, and be HFS for boot from OF to work | 11:29:18 |
