<samrose> does this channel still exist on some other URL? http://nixos-arm.dezgeg.me/channel
<samrose> although nothing appears to be there either. Not a problem either way
<samrose> ah I see now those channels were for ARMv6/v7 only
<samrose> This wiki page mentions an "installer" in the context of nixos-aarch64 is that still "nixos-install" ?
<samrose> in the case of bpi m64 I just dd'd from SD card to emmc disk on machine. But I am getting the feeling that I probably need to follow similar pattern to normal nixos install on X_86 here?
<samrose> actually that wiki page I llinked above seems to indicate that you copy the image, and refactor configuration.nix, and then "nixos-rebuild switch"
<thefloweringash> You can dump the images and go, or you can use nixos-install.
<thefloweringash> I nixos-install my devices, normally so I can setup booting to usb3 or f2fs on luks, etc.
<samrose> thefloweringash: if I am running a nixos-rebuild switch and get error "
<samrose> - The ��‘fileSystems��’ option does not specify your root file system.
<samrose> (use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information)
<samrose> does that appear familiar to you?
<samrose> my first guess is that I am missing something from my configuration.nix
<samrose> I guess I need to tell it where /boot and "/" are
<samrose> hmm this time with defining /boot and / I am seeing https://pastebin.com/raw/MrBGSGsW
<samrose> aha "preallocating file of 9209 bytes: No space left on device" :-)
<samrose> will add a usb flash drive as swap file
<samrose> aha amd I see https://nixos.wiki/wiki/NixOS_on_ARM#Disable_use_of_.2Fboot_partition
<gchristensen> USB as swap :')
<samrose> gchristensen: Is there a better approach on SBC?
<gchristensen> I don't know of one, I'm just remembering needing to do that in the past and how ... fun it is :)
<samrose> it may be as easy as a line in configuration.nix
<samrose> on ubuntu had to edit fstab and all that with the uuid of device
<gchristensen> you can also just swapon /dev/usbstick
<samrose> yeah I had hoped that would be the easy way here :)
<gchristensen> more thinking about how un-fun it is to need to swap to USB
<gchristensen> due to the slowness of its IO
<thefloweringash> I figured usb3 would be pretty quick
