== Status ==

'''@dezgeg''''s porting efforts to ARMv7 works on the Orange Pi PC, using the proper upstream u-boot.

U-boot support [https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/32554 has been merged 2017-12-11]. The [https://stuff.samueldr.com/nixos/uboot-orangepi_pc_defconfig-2017.11.nixpkgs.20171211.1545c3163bc6cf3cd0e81fee73dbf9baf29e5b0b.u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin <code>2017.11</code> release is made available pre-built] by the maintainer.

== Board-specific installation notes ==

First follow the [[NixOS_on_ARM#Installation|generic installation steps]] to get the installer image on an SD card.

U-Boot needs to be copied to specific sectors on the microSD card with <code>dd</code>. Download u-boot for the board (<code>uboot-orangepi_pc_defconfig-2017.11.nixpkgs.*.u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin</code>), and copy it to the correct location with (again, replace <code>/dev/sdX</code> with the correct path to the SD card device):

<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">sudo dd if=uboot-orangepi_pc_defconfig-2017.11.nixpkgs.*.u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin of=/dev/sdX bs=1024 seek=8</syntaxhighlight>

Then, install using the [[NixOS_on_ARM#NixOS_installation_.26_configuration|installation and configuration steps]].

== Serial console==

Your configuration.nix will need to add <code>console=ttyS0,115200n8</code> to the <code>boot.kernelParams</code> configuration to use the serial console.

{{file|/etc/nixos/configuration.nix|nix|<nowiki>
{ config, pkgs, lib, ... }:
{
boot.kernelParams = [
"console=ttyS0,115200n8"
];
}
</nowiki>}}
== Compatibility notes ==

* Using the upstream kernel at 4.13, neither HDMI nor Ethernet will work.
** [https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/29569#issuecomment-347023896 #29569 has a comment with a compatible linux kernel overlay derivation.]
** Support for ethernet may land in 4.15.
** HDMI support isn't in the maintainer's requirements, it may start working in the future.
