 artemis | u-boot also emulates a subset of pxelinux which i have used before. see https://artemis.sh/2022/05/16/everfrees-armferno.html#third-circle---pxeboot but that depends on u-boot being able to work with your network chip. no idea if it supports the vf2 networking. i am sure there are better ways but thats the one ive done before | 08:14:34 |

| artemis | ah i see reading scrollback more that you were trying this | 08:18:26 |

syslinux seems to be x86_64-linux only? No, I also stumbled on syslinux while trying to go nixos-anywhere on RISC-V. | 08:41:43 |

anyone messed around with building 32bit pi images on 23.05? running into this http://dpaste.com/2LP59KW45 I've native armv7l-linux images https://hydra.armv7l.xyz/jobset/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable | 08:48:25 |
| artemis | oh cool htanks | 08:49:06 |
| artemis | * oh cool thanks | 08:49:10 |
| misuzu | I've only tested them with u-boot (uefi) | 08:49:58 |
| artemis | i am using a raspberry pi 2 | 09:21:54 |
| artemis | so i am stuck with the accursed raspi boot process | 09:22:01 |

Nix got a lot harder to compile than last time I tried. Lots of new dependencies with strict version requirements Including mdbook (-> rustc!!) for docs generation. Fortunately there's a configure flag to disable it | 10:43:42 |
| fgaz | nix: bootstrapped \o/
Time to build a NixOS image! | 11:13:42 |
| fgaz | By the way, is there a community riscv cache? | 11:14:24 |
 raitobezarius | No but it'd be nice to organize ourselves to build it :-) | 11:26:30 |
| raitobezarius | imagonna use https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/235918/ to bring ethernet to my uboot's riscv branch | 12:11:00 |
| raitobezarius | Error: ethernet@16040000 address not set.

| raitobezarius | ugh the eeprom thing doesn't seem to work | 12:35:22 |
| raitobezarius | urgh I realized pixiecore uses ipxe which is not ported to riscv yet :D | 12:45:14 |
| fgaz | Aaand I can't build anything https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/211120 | 14:39:01 |
| fgaz | * Aaand I can't build anything. I get the same error as https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/211120 | 14:40:02 |
| fgaz | Did anyone else run into this issue? Or do you all cross compile? | 14:40:30 |
| fgaz | Huh. I just patched those shebangs and everything works now. This doesn't seem specific to riscv so I wonder how stdenv is bootstrapped for other archs. No sandbox? | 17:25:03 |

Depending on how Nix was built, the default value for this option may be empty or provide /bin/sh as a bind-mount of bash.

 Alyssa Ross | I don't think that's even accurate | 18:04:52 |
| Alyssa Ross | it's never bash | 18:04:55 |
