theelevated | Is there a guide on how to run nixos on non standard arch like arm and riscv? How to compile linux manuelly and deploy it. | 19:54:22 |
K900 ⚡️ | We support aarch64 and to some extent risc-v | 19:59:39 |
K900 ⚡️ | So it really depends on what you're actually looking to do | 19:59:57 |

theelevated | In reply to @k900:0upti.me So it really depends on what you're actually looking to do A gentoo like experience which is quickly depolyable (nixos) with a custom mirror and Repo since the device is ressource tight not being able to compile on its own. | 07:50:29 |
theelevated | So a ressource stronger device can be the mirror and compile with custom flags | 07:52:07 |
theelevated | Its for a riscv device | 07:52:13 |
ElvishJerricco | theelevated: the big problem with most non-x86 devices is just getting them to start a boot loader, which is rarely standardized unless you're dealing with server hardware. Once you have that working, it's just normal nixos stuff mostly. | 08:08:42 |
magic_rb | Once you get into a running system, then a normal nixos-rebuild --target-host will suffice. Problem is getting into a running system | 08:35:43 |
magic_rb | Do you happen to have a functional kernel+uboot available? Can be from a different distro, it doesnt matter from where, you just need the source code and hopefully some documentation, but that is also optional with enough determination. | 08:36:33 |
magic_rb | The kernel should also be relatively recent, though technically it should be possible to make anything 4.4+ work to some degree, id avoid any kernels marked as vendor and those tend to have very nonstandard patches and interfaces. | 08:38:32 |

magic_rb | And ideal kernel would be 6.0+ which is called something like main or mainline which generally means its a very close fork of mainline linux that is hopefully in the process of being upstreamed | 08:39:30 |
