| jonhermansen | Got NixBSD building and starting to boot on ARM. Trying to get a UEFI build going for my Raspberry Pi 4... | 17:15:58 |
 Grimmauld (any/all) | won't the wonky raspi hardware give you issues? | 17:24:36 |
 K900 | I think it's one of the actually-supported targets for FreeBSD | 17:25:51 |
| K900 | Weirdly enough | 17:25:53 |
| K900 | I think it's because they don't get to any of the really weird bits | 17:26:02 |
| K900 | i.e. the GPU | 17:26:04 |

| jonhermansen | My plan was to boot using UEFI firmware. EDK2 is ported to Raspberry Pi. https://github.com/pftf/RPi4
For the first pass, I was thinking I can build the NixBSD image and copy this firmware by hand onto the boot media. | 19:29:14 |
| jonhermansen | I'm not too sure about firmware blobs that might be required for the GPU, but I will take a look. Probably I should put FreeBSD onto the Pi first just to test... | 19:30:16 |

| jonhermansen | Excuse the crappy photo quality. But I got the Pi booting :) Because the UEFI firmware supports ACPI, there's no need for devicetrees or anything. | 18:02:48 |

 Artemis Tosini (NixOS) | Nice! I remember getting the necessary parts building that once, but I never integrated it into something functional | 15:04:53 |
| Artemis Tosini (NixOS) | Good to see someone else get it to work | 15:05:15 |
