 JamieMagee | That sounds somewhat promising. | 00:34:45 |
| JamieMagee | I tried running hydra using QEMU for RISC-V support, and ran headfirst into: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/460825#issuecomment-3994959331
TL;DR RISC-V bootstrap binutils is predates support for zca, while GCC 15 now implies support for zca :/ | 00:39:27 |
 dramforever | that's an unrelated failure | 00:45:37 |
| dramforever | if convenient can you open a new issue for that? thanks | 00:46:01 |
| JamieMagee | dramforever: I opened https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/498689 | 01:01:39 |
| JamieMagee | I was going to wait for the bootstrap overhaul, but who knows how long that will take to land. So this should resolve the issue for now: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/498702 | 02:13:47 |

 Alister Galpin | Does anyone have an example of the minimum needed to get nix onto a device with uboot was just thinking about it and a lot of the previous pain I had was compiling, so thinking I should just get it booting and able to build/switch | 07:01:31 |
| dramforever | nixos? or just nix | 07:02:14 |
| Alister Galpin | Nixos | 07:02:27 |
| dramforever | also we don't really have prebuilt stuff for riscv so maybe it's not going to be much less pain | 07:02:36 |
| Alister Galpin | True, but might make the iterations faster, last attempt took 2 days of compiling 😅 | 07:03:42 |
| Alister Galpin | And then the image didn't boot ran out of time and now that's 6 months ago at least | 07:04:47 |

| eljamm | Hello, can someone please help test this program? the executable seems to be working, but I have no clue how to test the module. | 10:34:42 |

Hello, can someone please help test this program? the executable seems to be working, but I have no clue how to test the module. It's not 100% reliable, but you can try in qEMU.
Otherwise, for the most reliable results, you will need to wait a few days for someone to do a full native build of your branch. | 18:05:40 |
