 EVA-01 | awesome ! | 18:28:07 |

 Alex S | we need NixBSD | 18:31:07 |
| rhelmot | that's the goal!!!! | 18:31:18 |
| Alex S | NixOS with a freebsd kernel | 18:31:18 |

| Alex S | I like your commit messages | 18:31:43 |
| rhelmot | thanks. squash and merge will be a friend | 18:31:59 |
| rhelmot | challenges between now and nixbsd mostly include hooking up the nixos system confiruation mechanisms (which I have literally no idea how they work yet) to the freebsd system layout (notably, cannot use systemd). building the kernel will be easy | 18:33:14 |
| rhelmot | I also have a branch which attempts to get a desktop environment running but I can't even test if it builds because I don't have the disk space for the source files 😿 | 18:33:50 |

that's the goal!!!! I was joking XD | 18:35:45 |

 John Ericson | rhelmot: hi | 18:56:02 |
| John Ericson | I feel like we might have talked about this before? | 18:56:09 |
| John Ericson | or maybe just similar conversations with others? | 18:56:15 |
| John Ericson | Have you talked to Alyssa Ross about this? | 18:56:22 |
| rhelmot | No, I don't recall having talked to you or alyssa about this at all. Alyssa has been around while I've been complaining about the in-progress stuff but there's been no intersection. | 18:57:54 |
| rhelmot | John Ericson: can I ask what you mean by not seeing any overlap? My understanding is that the userland is already part of nixpkgs, so a tarball of that could easily replace the impure bootstrap I did. | 19:09:00 |
| John Ericson | the packages you modified we can already cross compile | 19:09:37 |
| John Ericson | and the stuff in pkgs/os-specific/bsd/freebsd should replace most/all of pkgs/stdenv/freebsd | 19:09:57 |
