Just two days of constant kernel rebuilds, a few cross-compilation quirks fixes and here we go! :)

 @abcdw Nice, would be neat to have a distro with atomic upgrades. Due to the massive size and perf hit, I've been putting installing Guix on my PinePhone off until it gets like 10x faster. :sadlinux: @csepp I don't think that environment for guix development requires powerful hardware. Recompilation of guix itself could be done incrementally, most optimizations could be done without even touch most of the guix modules, so you can develop and improve it with very limited hw resources. @abcdw Compiling Guix from a checkout on my netbook takes so long that I've never let it finish so far.  I wonder if Guix's build offload facility might help make your "accident" a little faster? https://guix.gnu.org/en/manual/devel/en/html_node/Daemon-Offload-Setup.html @alienghic For last two days I was cross-compiling the whole OS image locally and writing it to the phone's eMMC via USB cable, but I already got network working, so now I can use guix deploy to send new generations of OS to phone from my laptop. Offload facility also looks interesting, at least I see a few applications for future use cases. @kirschwipfel Yes, wifi and iwd is visible on the photo. I don't have local sim card and didn't check phonecalls yet, but don't see any problems with them. The working version should be available here: sourcehut seems to be down ATM. |
@abcdw You're saving the peeling of that screen protector for a special day? If you feel sad one day, you have something to cheer yourself up!
