Alyssa Ross | j-k: currently only Graham is really able to do that, and it's difficult to get his attention | 09:26:17 |
Alyssa Ross | in the meantime, the stdenv channel would probably make more sense than here? and it's not very active | 09:26:47 |
j-k | #stdenv:nixos.org | 09:27:16 |
qbit | in the raspberry pi.. boot .. menu (sorry, i don't know what booter it is..) when you do the "Enter choice:" to select your generation.. is it possible to edit those? | 16:41:22 |
qbit | as in.. add kernel command line option things | 16:41:49 |
qbit | i should just re-install.. it's in a bad state probably >.> | 16:44:04 |
@withoutwithin:matrix.org | will I need to flash the EFI firmware to get the nixos visionfive2 image booting? | 23:32:09 |
@withoutwithin:matrix.org | ah yes, i do | 23:35:55 |
| 25 May 2023 |
@withoutwithin:matrix.org | oh ugh it needs me to connect the visionfive2 to a nixos machine over serial | 00:00:29 |
@withoutwithin:matrix.org | that is kind of logistically annoying given my spacebar heating of running windows on my tower and sshing into nixos machines | 00:00:50 |
@withoutwithin:matrix.org | can I use the upstream buildroot SD image for the flashing? | 00:01:21 |
@withoutwithin:matrix.org | assuming the files on https://github.com/misuzu/nixos-vf2/releases/tag/0.1 are the ones I should flash that is | 00:01:45 |
@withoutwithin:matrix.org | ah yep, that works | 00:15:07 |
@withoutwithin:matrix.org | NixOS is booting! | 00:15:10 |

@withoutwithin:matrix.org | this is uhhhh not ideal | 00:18:39 |
@withoutwithin:matrix.org | how should I fix this? it was working fine with their recovery sdcard image | 00:18:52 |
@withoutwithin:matrix.org | cycling the ethernet connection didn't help | 00:24:01 |
@withoutwithin:matrix.org | I'll try flashing the NixOS image that I had my homelab build over all of today instead of using the one in github releases | 00:26:38 |
@withoutwithin:matrix.org | nope, the network interface comes up but I get this:
[ 46.889745] starfive-dwmac 16030000.ethernet end0: Link is Up - 1Gbps/Full - flow control rx/tx
[ 46.898623] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): end0: link becomes ready
| 00:28:45 |
@withoutwithin:matrix.org | I'm gonna try setting an IP address manually | 00:29:03 |
@withoutwithin:matrix.org |  Download image.png | 00:30:50 |
@withoutwithin:matrix.org | nope | 00:30:51 |
@withoutwithin:matrix.org | gonna try the snektron image | 00:35:36 |

Maybe you have v1.2 board with another ethernet chip? | 05:31:31 |

| raitobezarius changed their display name from raitobezarius to disko in NixOS 23.11 when. | 13:32:27 |

misuzu | I like how fast vf2 is

raitobezarius | did you try to enable certain RV optimizations? | 15:38:35 |
