 Mic92 | Steven Keuchel: ok, maybe I am blind but I don't see the edk2 section here: https://github.com/sophgo/sophgo-doc/blob/main/SG2042/HowTo/Configuration%20Info%20in%20INI%20file.rst | 19:50:26 |
| Steven Keuchel | oh I thought it was on there, but I seem to misremember. | 19:52:32 |
| Mic92 | I guess it was this one? https://github.com/sophgo/sophgo-edk2 | 19:52:43 |

How can I bootstrap the riscv64 nix binary tarball? There is also a not yet opened PR from me here. Was able to get the tarball to that scaleway em-rv Debian install. | 19:52:45 |

Scaleway now hosts RV servers based on the TH1520 https://labs.scaleway.com/en/em-rv1/ Oh no:

| Steven Keuchel | essentially you need to write a conf.ini to tell zsbl to load SG2042.fd, which is the edk2 blob | 19:53:24 |
| Steven Keuchel | that is what that page is about | 19:53:33 |
| Steven Keuchel | mine looks like this
[sophgo-config]
[devicetree]
name = mango-milkv-pioneer.dtb
[kernel]
name = SG2042.fd

| Mic92 | Ok. Thanks, that's hopefully all information we need. | 19:54:04 |

How can I bootstrap the riscv64 nix binary tarball? It can be natively compiled from source if you have all the required dependencies installed.
It might also be possible to cross-compile the Nix installer, though I've never tried that. | 20:17:53 |
| Mic92 | The flake in the nix repo probably just needs to be extended. | 20:47:08 |
| Mic92 | * The flake in the nix repo probably just needs to be extended. It already cross builds to armv7 | 20:47:30 |
| Mic92 | Ah. [0x4A6F]: already did it | 20:48:28 |
| [0x4A6F] | In reply to @joerg:thalheim.io
Ah. [0x4A6F]: already did it Currently trying to do an nix run github:numtide/nixos-anywhere -- --no-reboot --flake .#vm-riscv64-linux --ssh-port 22 root@$IP and look where it fails. | 20:50:10 |
| Mic92 | Kexec should work | 20:56:41 |
| Mic92 | The Linuxboot loader already does it | 20:56:59 |
| Mic92 | The milkv board might have enough ram to debug it as well. | 20:58:05 |
| Mic92 | Maybe I can also add riscv64 support to nixos-images / nixos-anywhere. | 21:06:02 |
| Mic92 | I should have the resources soon. | 21:06:13 |
| [0x4A6F] | Yeah, the image was the problem last time I tried. | 21:07:04 |
| Mic92 | In reply to @0x4a6f:matrix.org
Yeah, the image was the problem last time I tried. you can provide your own kexec image | 21:07:34 |
| Mic92 | for testing | 21:07:38 |

 fgaz | At NixCon we talked about adding a github label for RISC-V. I just discovered that committers can create labels. So I just created 6.topic: riscv64! | 14:25:02 |
