This will take some days given that it's building gcc, linux-headers, curl, cmake, rustc, curl and what not :D

that's what i've been trying to do, i have a framework laptop 13 running nixos that i've been cross compiling with risc-v, i might be doing it wrong but it doesn't seem to work right for me, idk

I got a VisionFive2 V1.3B and was not able to get nixos booting so far? I already flashed the latest bootloader via an upstream image.
Unfortunately I do not have an hdmi cable or UART adapter (ordered, in transit).
When I flash the nixos image linked in the nixos wiki, I do not see the device in my LAN and also the green LED does not flash?
Should the green LED supposed to be flashing under nixos, as it does with the official images?

You should be able to get it onto the network. If you can't, you could try getting it to log to the disk, but you're practically debugging blind without UART.

You're not booting from NVMe, are you? That doesn't work on some firmware versions (not properly configured to try NVMe).

Another thing to note is the selected boot mode. The vendor image is more tolerant and can probably boot in most modes, whereas some NixOS images need you to boot from flash (no firmware partition).

Though there is no hdmi output on any image I tried so far. Maybe the hdmi on my board is broken

It's very likely that your kernel doesn't have a driver for the HDMI. Check the version and what patches are being applied on top.

Fixed a bunch of cross build issue with python packages and got home-assistant almost running, but there is one I'm having trouble with wrapping my head around. The python bcrypt library just builds its shared object for x86 instead of riscv
Any ideas why?

Oh I just noticed it has the riscv64 target triple in the file name, very weird.

No, rustc is multi-targeting because it's based on LLVM. It's probably being given the wrong build flags.

Have you looked through the build logs for anything suspicious?
