Revision as of 08:51, 11 September 2017
QEMU support
As of June 2016, the versatile build of u-boot isn't built anymore.
Furthermore, the pre-built image is not present anymore on the mirror.
U-Boot: Drop Versatile build
I had broken this at some point and the patch conflicts quite often. Hopefully soon the Raspberry Pi 2 emulation in QEMU can be used instead.

Hopefully, there will soon (U-Boot 2018.01 release, I hope) an easy way to do this: https://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2017-August/304302.html

Native support for raspi in nixpkgs
Since a couple of months hydra also builds nixpkgs for arm64. Additionally some configuration is already in nixpkgs for raspi2 and raspi1, however no binary cache is available.
Raspi3 should be natively supported but right now there is no guide on how to build an image and install it. There is https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/nixos/modules/installer/cd-dvd/sd-image-aarch64.nix but the image really is nowhere to be found. --Makefu (talk) 08:51, 11 September 2017 (UTC)
