delroth | imo one of the underrated benefits of stage0 based bootstrap is that unlike ~all of nixpkgs, there are few people who can update and apply changes to the nix bootstrap tarball, it's big enough that it can't really be stored in nixpkgs itself and needs to live on an external nixos infra server | 17:56:58 |
delroth | last time I needed a change done to the bootstrap tarball it took weeks to find someone who would have time to take care of it... | 17:57:29 |

emilytrau | I wanted to kick off the effort of incorporating a stage0-based bootstrap into nixpkgs. I rewrote and cleaned up my prev work and put up a PR for discussion :))) https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/227914 | 05:12:12 |

artemis | In reply to @matthewcroughan:defenestrate.it To anybody who thinks they could help out with RISC-V on NixOS apply to this form, and it's pretty easy/chill this time around, it's likely you'll get a board directly ive gotten a couple group-emails from jeff@riscv.org about this now so i guess that means they accepted my application? pretty neat | 22:18:22 |
matthewcroughan - nix.how | yeah I pinged him a few weeks ago and asked whether I was getting a board, and said I've posted the form here | 22:19:04 |
matthewcroughan - nix.how | he finally responded a few weeks ago and said that people have been asking him where the boards are | 22:19:18 |
artemis | i never got a direct "hey we'll give you a board" but i appear to be on some sort of list | 22:19:21 |
matthewcroughan - nix.how | The board distribution has always been slow from Jeff, because he's busy and stuff | 22:19:59 |
matthewcroughan - nix.how | But they do always get there in the end | 22:20:09 |
artemis | i am looking forward to it | 22:20:24 |
artemis | i'll probably be installing gentoo on mine and then installing nix on gentoo in addition | 22:20:40 |
matthewcroughan - nix.how | Raw NixOS for me :P | 22:21:01 |
matthewcroughan - nix.how | https://github.com/MatthewCroughan/visionfive-nix | 22:21:12 |
matthewcroughan - nix.how | if you want an easy button, Robert Hensing added support for the visionfive2 to this repo here | 22:21:23 |
artemis | does this have kernel configs in it | 22:21:28 |
matthewcroughan - nix.how | yeah | 22:21:35 |
artemis | sweet, ty | 22:21:37 |
artemis | that'll be super helpful | 22:21:45 |

Alyssa Ross | Could somebody let me know if freshBootstrapTools still builds natively on riscv64-linux with this PR? https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/228712 | 10:40:35 |
Alyssa Ross | also, new architecture just dropped! :3 https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/commit/edcad332d938a97d09d3b3664ed4618eaf1d4938 | 10:43:43 |
[0x4A6F] | It is breaking on isl for me. Trying with rebased nixpkgs/master now. | 10:58:29 |
Alyssa Ross | oh right, https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/227383 | 11:10:05 |
raitobezarius | PSA I believe that Linux 6.4 has native support for VisionFive 2 | 11:52:01 |
