The basic idea is to boot from the armbian's uboot, flash it to the SPI flash first.
= Orange PI 5B =


Then build the NixOS's rootfs with armbian's customized kernel https://github.com/armbian/linux-rockchip/tree/rk-5.10-rkr4.
The next version of OPI5 which added eMMC and WIFI/BT by default.
 
Flake: https://github.com/fb87/nixos-orangepi-5x/blob/v5.10.x/flake.nix
 
This flake which is extended version of [[User:ryan4yin|ryan4yin]] by adding bootloader by default to create the bootable SDImage( The prebuilt https://github.com/fb87/nixos-orangepi-5x/releases/download/v0.1.0/nixos-sd-image-23.05.20230613.c702c94-aarch64-linux.img.zst can already be used).
 
Note: bootloader requires `python2` which is no longer receiving updates since 2020.  The `NIXPKGS_ALLOW_INSECURE=1` has to be passed in order to build.
