@k900:0upti.meK900What is a "slim version of nixos"?18:13:29
@albertlarsan68:albertlarsan.frAlbert Larsan The *-small channels aren't actually slimmer, they are jsut updated more frequently due to having less packages built for it. 19:16:51

How do you all have it setup?

Combination of IfState for interface configuration (supports network namespaces and vrf's), nftables and frr for dynamic routing

I also run it in a BPI-R4 similar to K900, but I haven't finished this project yet... Wifi not working yet
