makefu: powered it up yesterday and built a uboot for it (didn't boot it yet). there's a uboot in the internal flash spi which doesn't support extlinux, and wants ext fs as /boot on first partition. didn't setenv my way around that, will investigate the boot jumpers about whether it's possible to boot from external sdcard

docs are a bit sparse
15:47

however, will have to wait until mid of next week. visiting paris without the espressobin this weekend :-)
17:09

flokli: still, already sounds quite promising. if you got it working i will also get one :D
17:22
<

makefu: will let you know :-)

I have terrible upload speeds, when using the community box to `nix-build`, is it possible to prefer the nixos cache before copying?
17:47
<
samueldr >
well, I'm assuming that's what "copying path '...' to 'ssh://...'..." means
17:48
<
Dezgeg >
maybe nix-copy-closure --use-substitutes does it?
18:11
<
samueldr >
explains details for that batch
18:11
<
samueldr >
interestingly, it has PCI-E
18:14

wow even with pcie, that is pretty neat

hey, just wanted to be sure it's normal, not used to distributed build and nix
21:41
<
samueldr >
with the community box configured I currently have "waiting for locks or build slots..."
21:41
<
samueldr >
I'm assuming that it's a distant message and not local
21:41
<
sphalerite >
samueldr: may be that all the build users are currently in use. Not sure how many there are
21:42
<
samueldr >
any way to verify, there was activity and still is activity since a while ago on the box
21:42
<
samueldr >
(checking using htop)
21:43
<
sphalerite >
hm yeah there's not that much going on
21:43
<
sphalerite >
so either it's trying to build a derivation which is already in progress on that machine, or… idk
21:43
<
samueldr >
I restarted my nix-daemon earlier, checking it was local, didn't change anything
21:43
<
samueldr >
now I'm rebooting my board
21:44
<
samueldr >
I need to figure out the black box that the nix daemon is :)
21:45
<
samueldr >
rebooting didn't change much, so I'm assuming it's the box (which I don't really care if it's loaded, it's still awesome to have it around)
21:46
<
sphalerite >
it seems to be building a kernel, so if whatever you happen to be building is a kernel or has it in its closure that would explain it
21:47
<
sphalerite >
nothing else though
21:47
<
samueldr >
hmm, I was
21:47
<
samueldr >
oh, d'oh! I think I see why
21:48
<
samueldr >
I assumed the job wasn't mine since I assumed mine would be parallelized, but I
*commented* the value instead of resetting it back to true
21:48
<
sphalerite >
and... it's only building on one core..?
21:49
<
samueldr >
had an issue where 96 -j made the error message fly away in the scrollback
21:50
<
samueldr >
I just got a popular AArch64 platform I'm trying to build the kernel for
21:50
<
sphalerite >
can't you just use nix log to find it?
21:51
<
samueldr >
but that was yesterday, I let the
*other* intended non-parallel build run during the night
21:51
<
samueldr >
now that one was intended to be parallel :)
21:51
<
sphalerite >
but yeah according to ps -f $(pgrep -a nix-daemon | grep -Eo '[0-9]+') you're the only one using the nix daemon on the machine currently
21:51
<
samueldr >
(I just launched a new one with parallelism)
21:52
<
samueldr >
though, thanks, that's a useful command to know!
21:52
<
samueldr >
is there a way to cancel the build?
21:53
<
sphalerite >
kill the process talking to nix-daemon
21:53
<
samueldr >
ah, I was rephrasing to see if killing that process I own would work
21:53
<
samueldr >
yes, I, at least, don't want to hog one build user if I don't need it!
21:54
<
sphalerite >
well there's 192 of them so no acute shortage :p
21:54
<
sphalerite >
oh right, I wanted to sleep, heh
21:54
<
sphalerite >
gnight!
