| fufexan | umm, another weird issue. matthewcroughan - nix.how were you able to run anything with nix on the board? | 19:38:21 |
| fufexan | I guess I'll have to try flashing zhaofengli's sdcard image and try to work with that | 19:38:55 |

since we're talking aabout risc-v, i didn't know this was real until today | 20:30:47 |
| fufexan | looks really cool but I can't imagine working on such a small screen | 21:42:00 |
| fufexan | also, only 1GB ram, when my empty wm uses about 400mb 😄 | 21:42:34 |

j-k: Zhaofeng Li did you know that nix build nixpkgs#pkgsCross.riscv64.pkgsStatic.nix works? nice | 10:40:48 |
| j-k | I used the nix repo to build the release tar.gz so I'd get the installer script that sets up the systemd services and builder users for multi user install | 10:41:39 |

 matthewcroughan - nix.how | j-k: How do you boot the sdImage on the visionfive then? | 19:28:22 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | If anyone else knows, let me know! | 19:28:42 |

| matthewcroughan - nix.how | I've got an image, but I'm not sure if the opensbi firmware first has to be updated on the board before the sdImage will boot successfully | 19:29:19 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | Because now, I just get

| luizribeiro | matthewcroughan - nix.how: you need to grab the uboot bin from the firmware partition of the SD image. once that is done, you should update it by following the instructions on https://rvspace.org/en/Product/VisionFive/Technical_Documents/VisionFive_Single_Board_Computer_Quick_Start_Guide#appendix-b-updating-firmware-and-u-boot | 17:45:48 |

| luizribeiro | haha it's not as bad as it sounds. we will make it better eventually though :) | 18:04:54 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | I know, I'm working on that part. | 18:05:00 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | Just need to reduce this to nix run .#flashTheBoard | 18:05:09 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | But first I need to wade through all their methods | 18:05:27 |
| luizribeiro | oh that would be neat | 18:05:34 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | we could get it to be like nix run .#flash.ethernet or nix run .#flash.minicom | 18:05:45 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | give all the different flashing methods as an app | 18:05:57 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | Let's just throw people bones and stop with all these imperative instructions haha | 18:06:17 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | It's so ridiculous | 18:06:19 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | And it's always the same stuff explained differently 💀 | 18:06:35 |
