I should try
<samueldr>
but in theory, my usb hard drive that boots on my pi should boot fine on my pine a64-lts due to its SPI flash firmware :)
<samueldr>
with the fact that the uefi bootloader (bootaa64.efi) is different than the x86_64 one (bootx64.efi) I guess the same trick you did should work
<clever>
the biggest key, is that the config file the bootloader obeys, be different
<clever>
so it has a different kernel and systemConfig=
<samueldr>
yeah
<samueldr>
guessing it'd be a bother to make grub use a different file
<samueldr>
just a bother
<samueldr>
so one could cheese it by using systemd-boot on one
<samueldr>
could maybe even do i686 with care
<samueldr>
(assuming non-EFI)

I'm in the process of installing NixOS on a Raspberry Pi and it looks like llvm timed out while building on aarch64. Can that package be retried, or the build item limit increased? Building these packages on a rpi is awful
<jackdk>
I think builds are atomic, so if it failed the store should not have changed. What are you doing for swap? I used a USB HDD because swapping to SD is slow and probably not good for the card
<lezed1>
I haven't done much so far. I was hoping mostly everything would come from the build cache like on my x86_64 laptop. I'm trying to not actually have to build this locally. (I do think I would be able to just leave it for a day or more, but that's a pretty annoying thing every time some update comes through)
<lezed1>
mostly I wanted to see what could be done to make centralized builds work so it's nicer for everyone
