[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi Stefan!

Good news. I managed to run Guix libre kernel on the raspberry pi. Thanks for the help along the way!

pi@raspberrypi-guix ~$ uname -a
Linux raspberrypi-guix 5.18.16-gnu #1 SMP PREEMPT 1 aarch64 GNU/Linux

The issue was in the firmware, therefore I'll post the hashes of the files from the EFI partition:

I'll test it also on RPi3 and I'll change the storage media to SSD on my RPi4 to provide more space and faster reliable storage.

- I just have question regarding the example if it wouldn't be better to prepare the whole image - partition the SD card and just copy it to the actual media?

- Should there be some manual how to prepare the firmware files or format the SD card in case we prepare just the root filesystem and bootloader?

IMHO having ISO image for Raspberry Pi 3,4 (aarch64) would be great as it would allow them to run Guix easily without need to build it on some other aarch64 machine or resort to crosscompile. What do you think?


Also there's small patch to fix deprecated calls in os-defintion files.
