 John Ericson | Alyssa Ross: thanks for the help, we did finally get fetchCVS working for https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/311836, hopefully it is all good now! | 21:14:37 |

 raitobezarius | did someone already boot a LicheeRV Nano with NixOS or similar? | 18:10:20 |
| raitobezarius | or maybe a Nix-based operating system (256MB of RAM is a bit short) | 18:10:33 |
 Alex | In reply to @raitobezarius:matrix.org
or maybe a Nix-based operating system (256MB of RAM is a bit short) 256MiB of RAM with NixOS should be possible, assuming you cross-compile it.
The default system doesn't use very much (I have a RPi3 with some lightweight servers on it running at <256MiB used). | 20:24:13 |
 artemist | It's possible to natively build nix with such a slow machine but it take a long time (bootstrapping up to lix on a raspberry pi 1 failed about 2 weeks in due to a meson test) | 20:55:44 |
| Alex | Yes, but I doubt you can build every package in the default system with <256 MiB of memory. | 20:56:39 |
| artemist | i'm using swap | 20:58:06 |
| Alex | I guess that can work if you're willing to put up with the extreme time cost of thrashing. | 20:59:04 |
 7c6f434c | NBD ramdisk swap?… | 20:59:43 |
| raitobezarius | yeah i was not planning to build on the machine | 21:00:23 |
| raitobezarius | cross compilation and go brr | 21:00:28 |

The default system doesn't use very much (I have a RPi3 with some lightweight servers on it running at <256MiB used). yeah i suppose so | 21:00:40 |
| artemist | You could also use the LicheeRV Nano in ARM mode, but that sounds boring | 21:02:03 |
| raitobezarius | it's against my religion | 21:11:48 |
| raitobezarius | but i checked out their software repo and i think the road is a bit long until i get a NixOS system entirely set up for that | 21:12:19 |
| raitobezarius | i wanted to do it with no UART, 100% blind | 21:12:28 |

| Colin | are alternative init systems (openrc, s6, ...) considered exotic nix targets? | 14:15:28 |
