This article is a deletion candidate. This would do much better as a NixOS on ARM#Allwinner boards section or similar. Further information may be found on the related discussion page.

This template provides generic installation instructions for NixOS on ARM sub-pages. Look at the other installation instruction templates, there may be one more appropriate for the lineage of your board!

To use the generic installation image for your board, you will need to copy it verbatim to an SD card.

sudo dd if=sd-image-EXAMPLE-linux.img of=/dev/DEVICE conv=sync status=progress

This board requires the installation of u-boot at a specific location on the storage where NixOS was written to.

sudo dd if=EXAMPLE-u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin of=/dev/DEVICE bs=1024 seek=8
