 bl0v3 | but as it seems that doesn't really help , even alpine linux gave up on libressl on s390x these days | 13:59:59 |
| bl0v3 | ok | 16:34:17 |
| bl0v3 | so | 16:34:18 |
| bl0v3 | .#nixosConfigurations.z10.config.system.build.toplevel 's drv finished building now | 16:34:31 |
| bl0v3 | for s390x | 16:34:41 |
| bl0v3 | now i gotta figure out how to turn this into a bootable image | 16:34:53 |

now i gotta figure out how to turn this into a bootable image Does it work like traditional bios or UEFI? | 18:09:06 |

Does it work like traditional bios or UEFI? hell idktbh | 18:09:46 |
| bl0v3 | but its deffo gonna be a little more complex | 18:10:13 |
| bl0v3 | i honestly just want to make a cdrom or sth | 18:10:27 |
| aleksana (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | You can get an example in nixos-generators, but not necessarily using it | 18:10:53 |

You can get an example in nixos-generators, but not necessarily using it yes but like keep in mind this isn't x86 | 18:11:21 |
| bl0v3 | or arm | 18:11:31 |
| bl0v3 | or sparc | 18:11:33 |
| bl0v3 | its an architecture made specifically for mainframes and few ppl are willing to spend 7 digits on a machine and not have some sort of technicean or stuff | 18:12:12 |
| aleksana (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | You may be the first individual I have ever seen who owns a s390x server | 18:12:25 |
| bl0v3 | so there are no easy guides | 18:12:28 |
| bl0v3 | or any | 18:12:32 |

You may be the first individual I have ever seen who owns a s390x server i mean its old these days | 18:12:55 |
| bl0v3 | 2008 | 18:12:58 |
| aleksana (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | Although I've thought about that like "If I become very rich in the future, I will definitely buy a server like a double-door refrigerator and put it at home" | 18:13:23 |
| aleksana (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | So I can only say good luck | 18:13:35 |
| bl0v3 | but yeah why would one own this shit realistically, its weights over a ton and eats power | 18:13:43 |
| bl0v3 | so i want to make it slightly less useless by putting nix on it for the lulz | 18:14:10 |
| bl0v3 | Pr wise its also interesting. Cause traditionally netbsd folk used to brag about it running everywhere | 18:15:28 |
| bl0v3 | so running nixos would be funny i figure | 18:15:40 |
| bl0v3 | im sorta just looking for the simplest way i can generate a boot spec so i can refactor the extlinux bootloader targets like i did for some ebedded things | 18:16:27 |
| bl0v3 | pxe boot seems possible too but like i do want a persistant install | 18:16:58 |
 7c6f434c | Wait these are mainframes so the bottom hypervisor is always from IBM and you run stuff in VMs, right? | 18:17:54 |
